Promote Your Opportunities
Our Morgridge Mail digital newsletter is sent to nearly 8,000 students each week. We are happy to promote your local nonprofit volunteer opportunity, event, job or internship.
We also actively promote opportunities on social media.
Send all opportunities to marketing@morgridge.wisc.edu. Please include a short description and a link to more information.
Connect with Student Organizations
Reaching out to student organizations can help you recruit larger numbers of students and potentially create long-term partnerships. With over 600 student organizations active in any typical semester, chances are you can find a fairly specific cause. Email the Community Outreach Intern for more details.

Badger Volunteers
Badger Volunteers connects teams of UW-Madison students with local community sites (schools, nonprofits, municipalities) to volunteer with that organization 1-4 hours every week for an entire semester. This is a great option for organizations that could benefit from having consistent volunteers over the span of 11 weeks.
