Service at Notre Dame enables students to engage in transformative community service and service-learning experiences. These experiences provide an outlet for them to use their voice, skills, and critical thinking to affect positive change in their communities and the world. Every student at Notre Dame actively engages in different forms of service throughout their four years. Throughout COVID-19 we know of many projects students did on their own and we saw in action how no act of kindness is too small and can make a great difference.

This is the latest wake-up call that needs to be answered by each of us in a spirit of determined conversion.
