Come give!

Work as a GIVE volunteer locally and internationally! With OHIO University GIVE, you can volunteer at Tent City in Toledo and with refugees in Columbus. You also can work alongside locals to build schools out of recyclable materials, install fresh water systems, teach English, implement artificial reefs, and help to protect critically endangered species. Become a part of the GIVE family and empower local villages in Thailand, Laos, Nicaragua, and Tanzania.

You will be immersed in the culture of your host country and go on raw adventures. This includes (but is definitely not limited to): overnight safaris, hanging with elephants for three days, sand-boarding down an active volcano, scuba diving, snorkeling, swimming with dolphins and sharks in tropical waters, surfing, cave exploration, and much more.

Now is the time: Change your life. Change the world. Be the Roots of Change. Come learn more about volunteering and how to get academic credit.

Information sessions well be held on Tuesday, Aug. 29, in Baker Center 230 starting at 10:30, 11:15, 12:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00, 5:00, and 6:00.
