The purpose of Campus Cares is to serve as a regional think tank for volunteerism in higher education. Designed specifically to encourage and facilitate civic engagement and leadership development within the Pittsburgh region’s higher education community, Campus Cares works to increase and enhance volunteerism, service learning and the impact of regional nonprofit organizations. Additionally, Campus Cares hosts several trainings and fellowship programs to aid in collaboration and education among students, faculty, staff, and alumni from regional institutions.

All volunteers 18 years and older must complete and return the Volunteer Registration Form. Submit your completed form via fax (412-456-2212), email or mail (239 Fourth Ave., Suite 1007, Pittsburgh, PA 15222). This can also be done online under the Member and Non-Member Login section on the main Volunteer page.
