Mission

Welcome to the exciting new Buck-I-SERV website! Thank you for visiting us. Please pardon our electronic "dust" as we continue to improve and update our website. 

Buck-I-SERV Overview:Through Student Activitiy Fee funding, the Ohio Union Buck-I-SERV Advisory Board plans about 65 BUCK-I-SERV trips each year to different cities across the nation and the world working on a range of social issues. Each year our goal is to add to the number of participants and trips in order to ensure every student who would like to have this experience has the chance to participate.

Buck-I-SERV Mission and Goals:

Buck-I-SERV is a weeklong, substance-free program centered on community service and civic engagement, and held during the university’s breaks. The mission of the Buck-I-SERV program is to provide students with a challenging and fun opportunity to lead and learn through direct service experiences. Students will learn the importance of reflection, social justice, and civic engagement while gaining new perspectives through working in diverse environments. Students work to meet community needs, build on community assets, and bring their experiences back to campus with them at the closing of their trip. Through this life changing experience students create friendships with fellow students from across the university.
