What is "Community Service?"

President's Honor Roll LogoNazareth Receives President's Honor Roll Award for Service!
The Corporation for National and Community Service named Nazareth College to the President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll With Distinction for exemplary service efforts and service to disadvantaged youth. To read the full press release, click here.


Community Service refers to action taken to meet the needs of others and to better serve the community as a whole. Community Service can involve direct service in which individuals work face-to-face with people in need. Indirect service involves working behind the scenes to help agencies in need.

Opportunities are coordinated through several departments of the Student Development Division, including the Center for Spirituality, Student Activities, Residential Life and Athletics. Check back often as the newsletters are updated as new events and opportunities become available!
