Volunteer
Get involved in clubs, programs, and projects addressing issues of sustainability in our campus community and the larger Gettysburg community, and then also in your home community. There are many ways to get involved or volunteer to help make campus more sustainable!
An easy way to stay in the loop is to become more involved with the Sustainability Advisory Committee, G.E.C.O., Farmhouse, Campus Kitchens, and the Center for Public Service, as these groups are usually the first to know about any sustainability volunteering opportunities on and off campus.
Keep an eye out on the Student Digest as well; many volunteer opportunities are often listed there.
The Painted Turtle Farm is usually looking for volunteers, and if you are interested please contact the Painted Turtle Farm Interns:
- Sara Tower '12 at towesa01@gettysburg.edu
- Hannah Grose '13 at grosha02@gettysburg.edu
- Erin Richards '13 at richer03@gettysburg.edu
For other volunteer needs please contact the Center for Public Service at cps@gettysburg.edu.
Interested in service learning? Gettysburg College offers (paid!) Recycling Internship positions, and Painted Turtle Farm Internship positions every summer to help improve campus sustainability. Volunteer with local agencies to get in touch with the community outside of college life.
