Western in the Community: How do you serve?
The Office of University Communications is looking to get a better idea of how Western's faculty, staff and students make a difference in Whatcom County through volunteerism.
Many departments and programs keep updated hourly total of how much volunteer work their students do, and we'd love to know that -- but in addition what we're looking to find is volunteer activity by faculty and staff themselves.
Do you volunteer or serve on the board of a local nonprofit?
If so, please let us know: e-mail a sentence or two to john.thompson@wwu.edu, telling us how you serve in the community, whether it's helping out at the Food Bank, serving on the board of a local environmental or health-services nonprofit, tutoring fledgling readers, or being a Big Brother or Big Sister.
We're proud of you for your efforts, and we want to know more about it!
