For Students

Welcome!

Whether you found us through a professor, the Leadership Program, or simply by searching for service opportunities around Newport News, we're glad you're here.  It is our goal to help connect you with the right opportunity to serve, and to assist you in any way we can.

Ways to Engage

—————————————————————————————

For me, service learning is the process of contributing to the community and then reflecting on that contribution.  Through the reflection comes personal growth.  CNU made service meaningful by facilitating this process of acting and reflecting.
