GIVE BACK TO YOUR COMMUNITY | MAY 20, 2023
OSU Day of Service is a celebration of our global Beaver community making positive changes. On May 20, alumni and friends of OSU will take the community spirit of Beaver Nation to the streets and online to make a difference.
Do you have a passion for environmental restoration and education? Food security and community health? Supporting underserved populations, youth or elder populations? Connect with Beavers who share your interests and commitment to addressing community
needs.

Do you want to start a service project in your community? It’s easy! Volunteer with an existing organization or help spread the word about a digital project that you are passionate about. We are looking for volunteers to help lead projects on May 20 in their community. The
choices are endless and we are here to help with these resources:
- How to become a site leader
- Tips and tricks for site leaders
- Volunteer site application form - in-person projects
- Volunteer site application form - digital projects
Each year, we see volunteers from Oregon, Washington and California, but we would love to see Beavers take part this year from across the globe! Will you help us fill in the map? Alumni in Idaho, Texas, New York, Boston or Denver, let's get together for the Day of Service! Do you live somewhere else? Give us a call at 877-678-2837 and let's explore the possibilities!

I am always a firm believer in uplifting people in nursing homes and elder care, tulips are a great way to do that ...

It's an important way in which I can benefit at least three people who need blood.

It has to start somewhere, so why not start with me and my family spreading some cheer and cleaning up our neighborhood?
Marcia Torres-Ruiz, '01
Coming from a family who needed help in the past, I know all too well what it's like and how much it meant when someone helped us.

Hopefully the plant starts I grow and give away will encourage individuals to get outside and get some much-needed Vitamin D.

It's a need that we can help with that has made a huge difference for those who can't leave their homes.

Human connection is one of the deepest ways to show love and feed/received hope - to strangers and friends alike.
