Save the Date for UC Serves on May 17
Staff and faculty give back to local community through a variety of service options
Staff and faculty are invited to join the Division of Student Affairs on May 17 for the sixth annual UC Serves — a day for staff and faculty to share in the common experience of intentional, focused service to the communities surrounding University of Cincinnati campuses. UC Serves offers staff the chance to give back to the community while building a stronger network of colleagues on campus through the shared experience of meaningful engagement.
UC employees perform for students at Corryville Catholic Elementary as part of UC Serves in 2018.
Last year's event brought together nearly 500 UC faculty and staff at over 40 different service sites around the Tristate. That's more than 3,400 hours of service and impact to our communities! Registration opens later this spring.
