The second Bruins Give Back volunteer service event of Kellogg Community College’s Fall 2016 semester will be held from 9 a.m. to noon Friday, Oct. 28, at two locations in Battle Creek.

A collaborative, campus-wide service program involving the College’s Service-Learning area, Student Life office and HandsOn Battle Creek, Bruins Gives Back brings KCC students and employees together in service through volunteering at locations in and around Battle Creek.

Bruins Give Back is held from 9 a.m. to noon on Fridays up to three times per semester, and past events have been located at elementary schools, community gardens and at various locations on campus at KCC, to name a few. Service locations for the Oct. 28 event include:

  • Kellogg Community College’s North Avenue campus, where participants will hold a car wash with KCC President Mark O’Connell to raise money for student scholarships.
  • Kingman Museum, where volunteers will help decorate displays, organize items in the museum and, depending on the weather, work outside.

All KCC students and employees are invited to serve at this and future Bruins Give Back events, and can sign up online via the form available at https://goo.gl/forms/vHesWtc1d98nmjl62. The third and final Fall 2016 Bruins Give Back event will be held Friday, Nov. 18.
