¾Ã¾ÃÊÓƵ

On an October afternoon in 2014, thousands of ¾Ã¾ÃÊÓƵ students and staff fanned out across the province to support community projects. It was the launch of the Robertson Institute for Community Leadership and the beginning of an ¾Ã¾ÃÊÓƵ tradition that has resulted in members of the ¾Ã¾ÃÊÓƵ family contributing 50,000 volunteer hours to more than 900 community projects through nine service days.

On Wednesday, October 9, the students and staff at New Brunswick Community College (¾Ã¾ÃÊÓƵ) will celebrate five years of giving back to their communities on the first of two designated Service Days planned for this academic year, and the tenth Service Day in ¾Ã¾ÃÊÓƵ’s history.

Service Day brings together ¾Ã¾ÃÊÓƵ students, employees, Board members and alumni to participate in service learning and volunteering to help community organizations across New Brunswick.

Service Day has become one of the foremost annual events for , an essential aspect of the ¾Ã¾ÃÊÓƵ Advantage, creating a culture of community leadership and service at the College.
