Community Involvement
RIT's commitment to service is evident through the many clubs and student organizations who spent over 20,000 hours volunteering with local and global nonprofit agencies in 20-21. Each year student service and philanthropic giving is vital to boosting local resilience and building community within the broader Rochester area. At RIT active citizenship takes form in innovative ways that leverage digital platforms, environmental preservation, art and design, community organizing, and creative fundraising.
Every year, RIT students prove that they are ready and willing to respond to the call and to take inspired action to build a better future for our communities. To get involved check out the Center for Leadership & Civic Engagement, Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life, Campus Life's service affiliated clubs, RIT Honors, or explore opportunities on our own using our Community Service Resource Guide.
