Staff On-Campus Community Service Opportunity

Want to make a real difference in your community?

Care about the environment?

Dream of creating a kinder, more inclusive world?

If this sounds like you, we’ve got an opportunity that checks all the boxes – and, with your supervisor’s approval, it counts as Community Service hours – it’s already approved by the Center for Community Engagement!

Join us every Monday from 2-3 pm in the Department of Multidisciplinary Studies Student Collaboration Laboratory (Holmstedt Hall 243) to help with the Buddy Bench project!

So, what’s a Buddy Bench? It’s a simple yet powerful idea – a public seat where anyone can sit to show they’re looking for a friend or someone to talk to. Buddy Benches bring kids together, fight bullying, and help reduce loneliness, spreading kindness in the process.

Here’s how you can help!

1. Clean and sort plastic caps that will be recycled into Buddy Benches.
2. Give just one hour a week to make a big impact.
3. Assist with collecting caps from around campus.

Sound like something you’d love to be part of?

For more info, reach out to Natasha Rascon (Natasha.Rascon@indstate.edu) or Ti Pitts (Ti.Pitts@indstate.edu) – we’re excited to get you involved.

Let’s make something amazing, one cap at a time!
