The Berkeley Project

Our purpose is to achieve three objectives. First, we hope that the many hours of volunteer labor will tangibly enhance the city residents’ quality of life and physically improve the city itself. Second, this event will help to forge a more positive relationship between students and city residents. Lastly, our goal is to increase the number of UC Berkeley who consistently partake in community service or volunteer work. We are confident our efforts already have and will continue to build a sense of community pride in Cal students and serve as a gesture of goodwill to bridge the gap between our campus and the community.
