UC Serves brings together staff and faculty from across the University of Cincinnati to work on projects proposed by local non-profit partners. UC Serves allows staff and faculty to be on the front lines of our institutional commitment to service and community impact.
Staff and faculty volunteers should visit Bearcats Landing for UC Serves information or to register. Local non-profits interested in partnering should contact community.engagement@uc.edu for more information.
UC Serves is a demonstration of the university's commitment to urban impact and investment in faculty and staff development. Join us for this day of intentional, focused service to the communities surrounding the University of Cincinnati campuses.
