About Us

VKSU is a campus-based volunteer service center matching volunteers' interests with community needs. Students, faculty, and staff who wish to volunteer are "plugged in" to help meet needs through VKSU's coordination with more than 300 organizations in the community. KSU students are encouraged to learn and serve through individual volunteer placements and group service projects.
