OUR MISSION
|
UCAN
stands for University Community Assistance Network.
It is the only campus organization devoted solely to community
service. It is not a club that you have to join. There are no
membership dues or eligibility requirements. UCAN is student-run,
so its life depends on the energy, imagination, and commitment of
students! In life ,remember to smile we are making a difference in
peoples lives!!!!!
Our
Purpose...
UCAN's purpose is to
demonstrate our desire to help by serving the needs of the campus
and larger community. We also seek to facilitate cooperation among
campus organizations in our service efforts. We have a goal of
educating students, faculty and staff about the social concerns of
our society and empowering them to make a difference by doing
your education. In doing this, we are living out and inspiring a
life time commitment to the ideals emblazoned on the Wingate
University Seal:
FAITH ,
KNOWLEDGE, AND SERVICE
U CAN. . .
Mentor a youth
Motivate disabled workers

How Can U get Involved
UCAN has many levels of
involvement. You may devote an hour or two a week to an ongoing
service opportunity, or U CAN volunteer for one-time projects. We
will work with your schedule. U may also bring your ideas for
service to us, and we can help plan the project -- maybe some
project you were involved with at home. Just go to the
Volunteer Interest Form on the web
or stop by the UCAN office (Office 133), which is located across
from the post office to pick up a form.

We can only do small things with great love."
