The Big Event
In the spirit of our university's commitment to citizenship, JMU students, faculty, donors, alumni and friends gather together every spring for a day of community service, in partnership with JMU community relations, Greater Madison and the Student Government Association.
In 2012, more than 1,000 JMU students and alumni participated in "The Big Event" in 13 different cities across the country (see map), partnering with volunteer organizations that included Habitat for Humanity, SPCA, The Make-A-Wish Foundation, conservation cleanups, veterans assistance programs, charity runs and local food banks.
In 2013, the JMU Alumni Association aims to increase the number of nationwide volunteer opportunities from 13 to 20.
If you are interested in establishing a Big Event service opportunity in 2013, contact the Office of Alumni Relations via email and help us make a big difference.
