Volunteers

Volunteers are an important resource for the 91社区. Not only do they add to the vitality of life on campus, they also make valuable contributions to the success of our students, faculty, staff and the entire USF community.

The university encourages community members and students to donate their time and expertise as volunteers with USF. Departments and divisions are encouraged to explore all avenues of community involvement through the use of volunteers.

If you are interested in volunteering at USF, please contact divisions or departments directly to explore volunteer openings that may be available. For general questions, contact Human Resources at (813) 974-2970 or email volunteerservice@usf.edu.
