Volunteer Fair

For more information on the Volunteer Fair, please contact the Office of LEAD.

The Volunteer Fair is hosted by the Weppner Center each year and seeks to connect Â鶹ŮÀÉ students to the many community agencies that work every day to address a variety of local issues. Community agencies join us for the day to network promote their agency, and educate students on the ways that they can become change agents in the community.

Over the years, the event has been held on the Â鶹ŮÀÉ Boca Raton campus' Breezeway and featured up to 25 community agencies that represented a variety of local issues.
