Community Service
Drexel actively supports research that benefits communities, public service by students and faculty, and business practices that spur economic development.
What is Community Service?
Community service is the action of connecting with the community for the purpose of improving lives of all ages. Students are able to become active members in society and contribute in a meaningful way by participating through volunteer work.
