As a University with a Christian Catholic emphasis, we are challenged by Jesus' own example of serving all those in need. Louisville's spirit of service and compassion, its interfaith cooperation, and civic dedication make it possible for members of the Bellarmine Community to volunteer their efforts. There are a variety of volunteer and service learning efforts at Bellarmine. These efforts are made to more fully engage students with the spirit of service reflected in the Bellarmine mission and Catholic heritage. These areas are being served through various student organizations and programs on and off campus.
People become involved for a variety of reasons.
Some are concerned with a specific issue, some become involved to help others, and others serve to gain work experience and career development. There are many ways to become involved in Volunteerism. The following is a list of Bellarmine organizations that provide opportunities to become involved in Volunteerism. Membership is open to any Bellarmine student. The Volunteer Council meets monthly to share ideas and opportunities for service in the local and world communities.
