Ram$ for Change is a dynamic service-based program offering both volunteer and funding opportunities, depending on the type of participation. This community engagement program aims to meet immediate community need and generate mutual understanding and support between Community Agencies (non-profits, government-based organizations, and CSU departments) and current CSU Rams. Overall, Ram$ for Change offers pre-planned service experiences for those seeking to create connections and make a quick and direct impact in the community. Individual Volunteers and Volunteer Teams can both participate in Ram$ for Change. Individual Volunteers are not participating in a Team of 5 or more CSU Rams, and instead are operating solo. Volunteer Teams comprise 5 or more CSU Rams and require a Team Leader who also volunteers and is counted in the minimum of 5 volunteers.
Our goal is to assign you (an individual volunteer not participating with a Volunteer Team) to a service project that accommodates both volunteer teams and individuals and meets your transportation needs. Please note: transportation is not included with Ram$ for Change, but there is always at least one service project that is on a bus route or is in close proximity to campus.
