Now more than ever, service is necessary to tackle the most pressing issues of our times. Western recognizes students who demonstrate an exemplary commitment to service with the Western Volunteer Service Award, which distinguishes, celebrates, and inspires community service leaders and volunteers to lead the charge. Western students are invited to apply and be recognized by our institution for being active community volunteers. 

Award Requirements and Process:

• Serve in the community for a minimum of 100 hours during a 12-month period. Service hours can be in conjunction with classroom/club service hours. 
• Document service hours in Western's Ugetconnected. To learn how to use Western's Ugetconnected, click on Resources below. 
• Once hours are documented, email a PDF of your Ugetconnected Volunteer Resume to TheSPACE@westerntc.edu by March 1, 2022. 
• Qualifying students will be awarded the WVSA at Western’s spring celebration.
