Office of Volunteer Programs (OVP) Ambassador Program

Looking for passionate individuals who are interested in: learning more about service work; impacting the community in a lasting way; and gaining valuable professional experience. 
The program consists of a 6-week course that would combine theoretical, practical, and creative outlooks on service-learning, volunteerism and community development. The only commitment that we ask of students is their participation in the weekly courses. However, if they would like to earn the title of OVP Ambassador, they would be given the opportunity  to complete additional activities such as: participating in 6 volunteer events (3-5 OVP planned events + 2-3 events with outside agencies), and contributing a minimum of three posts to our blog.
Application deadline: February 15, 2012
The application can be found here: https://illinois.edu/sb/sec/4517209
The course sessions will be from 5:30-7:30 each Wednesday from February 22nd - April 4th.
