What is Service Dates?

Volunteer with Service Dates!

"Service Dates" is a unique program designed to seamlessly integrate altruism into the dating experience for students. Whether attending with a date, friend, or spouse, participants engage in monthly on-campus service activities aimed at benefiting a diverse array of community agencies, from local public schools to the Church of Jesus Christ Humanitarian Services. By combining the joy of companionship with the fulfillment of giving back, Service Dates fosters meaningful connections while making a tangible, positive impact on society. Join us in cultivating love and service in every aspect of life.

BECOME A LEADER

Volunteer Leader Description: There are two kinds of leadership positions: Lead Program Director and Program Director. A program only has one Lead Program Director, but multiple Program Directors. Leaders are generally responsible for overseeing recruitment, retention, and reflection with volunteers. They also coordinate service with community partners and ensure their program runs smoothly. Volunteer leaders may also share the responsibilities of volunteers as outlined in the Volunteer Description. For more information, visit our section called Be a Leader!

Volunteer Leader Commitment: In addition to volunteering, Volunteer leaders commit to a 1-hour monthly team meeting to discuss needs and make plans for the program.

We had a Christmas activity where we made Christmas decorations for the children's wing of the nearby hospital. I was blown away by the number of volunteers we had! We filled an enormous bag with decorations. The volunteers were so excited to be a part of the activity and they all did an amazing job. When we went to the hospital to drop off the decorations, the lady at the volunteer desk was so excited. She thanked us and told us that the kids would love them. It was a simple service, but it made so many people happy: the volunteers, the receptionists, and the kids.
