Register for a project near you.

To find opportunities to help, you may not need to look beyond your neighborhood. Food insecurity, hunger, environmental restoration, health and education are examples of needs that have inspired past service projects.  Join an existing project below or volunteer any day during the month of May and log your hours here.  Let's show the world how OSU alumni are dedicated to supporting communities around the world.

    We're looking for volunteers! Plan a service project near you!

    Beavers are quick to roll up their sleeves when it comes to solving problems, even when it involves working outside their comfort zone. Each year in May for OSU Days of Service, alumni, students and friends use this shared community spirit and join together to make positive change.   

    Do you have a project in mind? Complete the quick form below and we'll invite others to join you!

    We’re especially looking for new and returning volunteer leaders from areas such as Oregon, Washington, California, Idaho, Texas, New York, Boston, Denver — and everywhere else — to take part, grow Beaver Nation’s impact and supplement our strong West Coast presence! 

    It’s easy to get started. Choose an organization or cause that you are passionate about. Then, OSUAA can help you with these resources. 

    Looking for tips and tricks to help you get started? Give us a call at 877-678-2837 or check out these great resources: 

    Give today!

    If you’re short on time, we will put your money to work by helping to grow the OSU network and support OSU students! Support OSUAA programs and student scholarships by making a gift. Type in "OSU Alumni Association Scholarship Fund" or "OSU Alumni Association Excellence Fund" in the form. Or support the OSU Alumni Association with Dam Proud Day. 

    Thank you for volunteering for past Days of Service! 

    Each year, we have a great turnout for OSU Days of Service. Volunteers in Oregon, Washington and California, and across oceans, from Hawaii to India and Korea, came together to volunteer in their communities. Alumni and friends packed food boxes for those in need, cleaned up parks and neighborhoods, helped with city recycling events, worked in gardens and more!
