So, What is Commerce Connects?

​ ​ ​

UHD's Center for Public Service and Community Research has created Commerce Connects, a student led group dedicated to engaging in volunteer opportunities in the areas of Criminal Justice, Social Work and Urban Education. Students who register and receive validation for completing 400 or more hours of community service will receive a special stole to be worn at graduation.

"Thank you so much for signing up to help us at last weekend’s Fresh Start Resource Fair. Your support was simply invaluable. You helped set up, tear down, kept track of attendance, greeted and checked folks in, manned booths, took photos, surveyed attendees, and provided extensive translation for our Spanish-speaking community members. It’s that support that made this a successful event. We are so appreciative of your willingness to volunteer and come together to help others."
