Volunteer
As we approach the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 2026, we invite the WCU community to engage in the semiquincentennial celebration by participating in 250 events on campus and in the community. That includes volunteering with local partners. If you are a partner who needs student volunteers or students seeking community partners celebrating the 250th, click on the link below to connect with our WCU250 leaders. Whether your organization commits to a single day of service or an ongoing effort throughout the year, your pledge fuels a powerful nationwide movement of unity, service, and community impact.
