Walden University Hosts Its 13th Annual Global Days of Service
“For more than 45 years, Walden has motivated its staff and students to be a force for good,” says Dr. Ward Ulmer, interim president of Walden University. “Our Global Days of Service showcases the many inspiring ways the Walden community partners with important local organizations and nonprofits to create a positive impact.”
Throughout the month of October, members of the Walden community will participate in university-hosted events or find volunteer projects in their local areas. This year, Walden is proud to partner with the following organizations and events:
- AIDS Walk Atlanta & 5K Run – Atlanta, GA
- Minneapolis Animal Care & Control – Minneapolis, MN
- Jeremiah Program – Minneapolis, MN
- Avenues for Homeless Youth – Minneapolis, MN
- Every Third Saturday – Minneapolis, MN
- People Serving People – Minneapolis, MN
- Tubman – Minneapolis, MN
- Animal Humane Society – Minneapolis, MN
- San Antonio Food Bank – San Antonio, TX
- Walk to End HIV – Washington, DC
- Beechfield Elementary/Middle School – Baltimore, MD
- Valley of the Sun United Way & Getz School - Tempe, AZ
“We are grateful for our multi-faceted partnership with the students, alumni, faculty and staff of Walden University,” says Jennifer Polzin, CEO of Tubman, a nonprofit dedicated towards helping women, men, children and families struggling with relationship violence, substance abuse, mental health and other forms of trauma. “Together, we make an impact in supporting survivors of trauma—a topic that, unfortunately, remains relevant in our culture and resonates now more than ever. Being part of Global Days of Service will help ensure that our spaces are warm and welcoming for the people we serve, our volunteers and staff.”
During previous Global Days of Service, the Walden community has participated in activities such as preparing packets of school supplies to hand out to students and teachers, remodeling a computer lab, refreshing paint in classrooms, installing wireless internet, cooking for families of sick children, and assisting with house-building projects.
