       Training Assistance:

Student Volunteers, Service Learning students, interns, and Federal Work Study students provide services such as computer skills, office help, direct service to clients, fundraising, marketing, public relations, and volunteer coordination to area nonprofit organizations.

        Service:

American Humanics Student Association conducts one service project each month with local agencies.  AHSA also plans unique special events that benefit organizations and the community as a whole.  As an example, September 07's Hunger Banquet brought together the university community, area nonprofits, and community members at large to address hunger issues with proceeds going to AH for future programming and Our Daily Bread, the local food assistance program.

Success for Life Through Reading utilizes volunteers to read and conduct activities with low-income pre-school children to promote literacy.
