Volunteer Opportunities | Career Development Services

The first NJIT “Community of Caring” campaign was launched in 2002, as a concerted outreach to promote the good work of NJIT students, faculty and staff and to challenge the campus community to provide at least 10,000 hours of service each year to the citizens of our communities. Students, staff, and faculty are able to contribute hours through our Community Connections volunteer referral service or through specific CDS civic engagement programs.

If you are interested in any of these events, please contact Deborah Sims - sims@njit.edu or Nadyrah Amin - amin@njit.edu
