Office of International Programs honors the efforts of volunteers
Every year, the Office of International Programs and Colorado State University seek to recognize an outstanding community volunteer (individual or couple) who has worked closely with the Office of International Programs toward continuous efforts in the area of international outreach.
The recipient will be recognized for significant lifetime volunteer acts that have helped promote international education and understanding within the larger CSU and Fort Collins community. Examples include organizing international awareness events, assisting with international student activities, volunteer leadership involvement in non-profit international organizations, and repeatedly helping international friends/guests or showing exceptional compassion as a global citizen.
This year’s volunteer appreciation event will take place Saturday, November 8, from 12-2pm. Additional details will be shared soon. We will be recognizing two volunteers this year, since we were unable to host this event last year.
