What Starts with The Project Changes the World

The Division of Diversity and Community Engagement is pleased to announce The Project Worldwide, a program designed to unite alumni and friends nationwide for a single day of service during the month of February.

The Project Worldwide is an extension of The Project, which has been sponsored by DDCE’s Volunteer and Service Learning Center (VSLC) for the past 13 years. Each year, The Project engages approximately 1200-1500 students each year in a day of service out in the Austin community. It has been so successful that in 2009 former President Bill Clinton’s Global Initiative – University partnered with the VSLC, holding a three-day national leadership conference for college students and college presidents in conjunction with The Project. This year, The Project will take place on Saturday, Feb. 25, 2012. Read More
