September Service Saturdays

September Service Saturdays provide the opportunity for students to give back and participate in community service that will benefit the Bloomington-Normal community as students are new or returning to campus each fall.

During the month of September the Center for Community Engagement and Service Learning will host several service projects. This is a great way to connect with the community and become an engaged citizen with other members of the Illinois State and Bloomington-Normal community. Transportation will be provided for those who need it.
