Semester-long Projects
NMSU has declared 2009 the year of Sustainability. Help
our campus maintain its status as a eco-aware community by helping out at our
recycling center. You can help Monday through Friday from 12:30- 2:00 PM.
Commit at least one hour to helping out at the center. The center is located on
Locust St just south of Wells St (about one block back from the Athletics
Center).
Call for Service Committee Liaisons!
NMSU Rotaract would love to have more community service projects;
however it’s a lot of work for one person to be the contact for all of our
projects. If you have any service or non-profit that is close to your heart
please consider being the official Rotaract liaison. As the liaison you will be
the contact person with the non-profit, schedule dates for service, assist in
recruiting students to attend the events, and report back to the club with
progress. Contact Vanessa at timbres@gmail.com for more information.
Possible organizations are
Jardin de los Ninos
