Welcome Students!
Student Senate Spotlight On: The Center for Community Outreach & CCO
What is CCO?
How do I get involved?
The best way to learn more about the CCO is to check out our website at www.ku.edu/~cco. From there, students can access all of the agencies that we refer out to as well as learn more about the fifteen service programs that we offer. While on the website be sure to register with us so that we will be coming
Another great time to check us out is during one of our twelve."So You Want to Volunteer?" sessions, offered throughout Hawk Week at various campus locations. The dates and locations of these sessions will be posted on the Hawk Week posters and flyers that will be posted throughout campus. This will be a great time to ask questions and learn more about how you can become involved with CCOI
The best way to learn more about the CCO is to check out our website at www.ku.edu/~cco.
Center for Community Outreach
The Center for Community Outreach is a student-run and student-funded organization on campus. We aspire to connect all students with valuable and meaningful service and volunteer opportunities. This is done by one time large-scale service events, acting as a referral agency to outside community and nationwide organizations, and through the fifteen student-run volunteer programs.
Our programs offer opportunities to serve a wide variety of causes and populations such as:
- The elderly
- The environment
- Children
- Non-native English speakers
- At-risk high school students
Whatever your major or interest - CCO offers a program or service opportunity for you!
What kind of time commitment are the CCO's programs? □□□ □
The great thing about our organization, is that our programs run at a variety of different times and days. Some of the programs require a continuous weekly commitment, while others allow students to pick and choose what projects they want to become involved with. Most programs are able to accommodate around students' schedules. Check the website for more information about dates and times for fall programs.
Lastly, make sure to take part in the Hawk Week Day of Service which will take place the first week students return to campus this fall. There will be three sites that students can volunteer at based on their interest. Lunch will be provided and it is a great way to get involved and meet other students!
