Volunteer

The CCE organizes only one or two service activities a semester so that it can focus on referring volunteers to already existing service opportunities. You can find service opportunities through 

• Find new opportunities daily on CCE's social media - Facebook, Twitter, Instagram
• Request a one-on-one service consultation - meet with a student in the CCE office to find opportunities best suited to your specific interests, schedule, and career path. Please indicate if you are faculty or staff and we'll set up time for you to meet with professional staff in our office. 
• Get involved with Volunteer USM, a student organization that organizes service opportunities 
• Upcoming CCE Events

If you are looking for volunteers, please use this form to request volunteers.

If you'd like to report service hours, please use Eagle Link. Hours reported through Eagle Link can be submitted to any organization registered on Eagle Link (hours will be emailed to the person listed as president unless arranged differently with cceFREEMississippi). 

Students who need verification of service hours should have volunteer supervisors sign a Volunteer Service Log, which can be uploaded onto Eagle Link. 

While all reported hours will be forwarded to requested organizations, CCE will only "approve" hours for our records that adhere to certain guidelines.
