Volunteers In Action

Volunteers in Action (VIA) is a club for students interested in community and on-campus service projects. Through club meetings, students have the opportunity to gather with others who have similar interests, to learn about and sign up for service opportunities, and to assist with planning events sponsored by the club. Everyone is welcome to attend. Meetings are scheduled every other Monday throughout the academic year and are held at 9:00 PM in the Fireplace Lounge, Nazareth Student Center.
