One day. One BU community.

Global Day of Service 2011 was a great success. Help us make GDS 2012 even better by saving Saturday, April 14th on your calendar.

Countless ways to make a difference.

Last year, 3,490 (and counting) Global Day of Service volunteers performed 25,078 hours of service in over 55 cities around the world. From cleaning up community spaces to executing a carnival for disadvantaged children, GDS projects touched countless lives in meaningful, surprising ways. With your help, we can make an even bigger impact in 2012!

What’s it all about?

Helping people in crisis. Fostering equality. Rescuing animals. Protecting the environment. The Boston University community is rooted in service—and that tradition has grown every year since BU’s 1839 founding.

This April, alumni, students, faculty, staff, friends, and family will join forces at sites around the world to create a new chapter in the University’s proud history of service.

Join us in this community effort to make a real impact!
