Wave of Green Day of Service

Tulane’s motto, non sibi sed suis—not for one’s self, but for one’s own—embodies who we are as Tulanians. Inspired by our core values, faculty and staff come together annually for this Wave of Green Day of Service, hosted by the Center for Public Service. By engaging with the people and organizations of our local community, we aim to understand and improve the lives of those around us. This year’s Day of Service will be held on Thursday, March 28, 2024. 

The Center for Public Service will provide volunteers with a commemorative t-shirt, round-trip transportation, snacks and beverages. Faculty and staff volunteers will check in at Avron B. Fogelman Arena in the Devlin Fieldhouse at 7:45 a.m. Buses will depart for service sites at 8:15 a.m. and return to campus by 12:30 p.m. for a closing lunch at Avron B. Fogelman Arena in the Devlin Fieldhouse. Parking will be available in the Loyola garage.

Upon arrival at each service site, representatives from the community organization, as well as a staff member from the Center for Public Service, will provide volunteers with a brief training. All sites will have restrooms, snacks, and water (volunteers are encouraged to bring refillable water bottles).

Faculty and staff at the Primate Center may volunteer for one of two service projects on the Northshore. For more information, please contact Stacey Schwankhart at at sschwank@tulane.edu.
