Volunteer Day

Presenting an annual UCLA favorite: Volunteer Day! A flagship event of both CSC and the Volunteer Center, Volunteer Day embodies the TrueBruin spirit of service and community engagement. The 2023 Volunteer Day takes place during True Bruin Welcome and has earned its place as one of the largest community service initiatives at UCLA.

New students join together with continuing undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, staff, alumni, parents, and community members to participate in a wide range of community service projects across Los Angeles and the globe. Volunteers participate at 40+ community partner sites providing critical service work, beautification, and support at food banks, parks, shelters, senior centers, schools, veterans’ facilities, and various other community organizations. We invite you to embrace this opportunity to connect with the community, exemplify the True Bruin spirit, and leave a lasting, positive impact. Sign up to engage in meaningful service!
