WORLD WIDE SERVICE FAIR

9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Buntrock Commons, Crossroads
The Center for Experiential Learning, in conjunction with the 21st annual Nobel Peace Prize Forum and Globalization and Social Responsibility Conference, is hosting the 12th annual Worldwide Service Fair (titled the Peace Fair this year under the auspices of the Peace Prize Forum) to provide an opportunity for students to connect with volunteer/service organizations and advocacy opportunities. Many of the fair’s organizations have missions that relate to the Peace Prize Forum’s theme of combating climate change, and all work to promote peace and justice domestically and internationally. To date, the following organizations have accepted our invitation to participate in the event. We will update the list periodically as more organizations respond.
