How can I partner with Husky Volunteers?
- Day of Caring: Be a host volunteer site for our campus wide day of service. Receive volunteer service from 10-30 college students for a one day project and exposure of your organization to over 100+ students and faculty. This event will be held on Friday, October 13th. If you're interested in becoming a service site for this event, email hvchair@uw.edu!
- Monthly Service Events: If you need volunteers for one-time projects consider connecting with our team! We can provide a small group of students who are passionate about your mission. The team hosts monthly service events and your organization could be our next service site! For more information please contact our Volunteer Coordinator at huskyvolunteer@uw.edu.
- UWT Gives: If you'd like to partner with the team for our annual holiday gift drive, please contact hvchair@uw.edu.
