1000plus is a relatively new organization that strives to get 1000 CMU students out into the community for a single day of service. It started three years ago and has continued to grow each year.
HC: When is 1000plus?
1000plus is Saturday, March 26th
HC: How do you sign up for it?
You can sign up online by visiting www.willyoubecounted.com. General registration doesn’t open until the beginning of March, but right now we’re talking to large groups to register their members, as well as looking for Site Leaders and a couple more subcommittee members if people are interested in getting involved with the organization.
HC: What types of service opportunities are available?
Every year the service opportunities change based on availability, but service opportunities range from out door hands-on work like cleaning up the South Side Slopes, to more people based service, like activities with senior citizens. We also try to work with the larger groups and take their input when selecting service opportunities, so that we can provide projects that are in line with their values.
