Why did you choose to be a Program Manager for your program?

As the Community Engagement Program Manager, I have the opportunity to make volunteering feel more accessible to students. Searching for ways to make a difference on your own can be intimidating so I hope I can help by connecting students to our service programs and community partners.

Why should people get involved in our community service programs? / What is something about your program that people can look forward to?

Community service is an incredibly rewarding experience. Besides being able to help people, it gives you the chance to become more familiar with the Boston area and different parts of BU. Plus, you get to meet so many cool people when volunteering.
