UPCOMING EVENTS
  Outreach Day - Saturday, TBA

Each semester RSVP coordinates a one day community plunge in which hundreds of Rice faculty and students work on community service projects throughout Houston. Day-long activities inform volunteers about the needs of the community, recruit them for long-term service, and strengthen the relationship between Rice and local service agencies. Since 1987, volunteers have repaired and repainted homes, sorted and boxed food, helped refurbish a shelter for children with AIDS, served meals in soup kitchens and built playgrounds in city parks. More than 500 Rice volunteers join forces with local service agencies to do meaningful and effective outreach work. It will be your duty along with two other team members to put this event together. GOOD LUCK!
