Volunteer Action Center Applications Are Open
Want to get involved in your community and create actual change? Come volunteer within the Volunteer Action Center!
The center offers numerous service outlets for students including the Razorback Food Recovery Program. The Razorback Food Recovery program partners with Chartwells Dining to recover excess food from the University of Arkansas' dining halls and retail spaces. Recovered food is this given to local partners who feed those in need.
Come join the Razorback Food Recovery Program's fight for daily sustainability through waste, emission, and hunger reduction. Volunteers are needed to help the program collect, track and deliver food each weekday. Please sign up to create change by joining the Razorback Food Recovery Program. Apply at HogSync!
