Community Engagement and Service
Working to make a difference
Community engagement at Linfield University promotes learning, development and civic responsibility through co-curricular and curricular service opportunities. We support your journey toward civic engagement by maintaining partnerships with more than 100 community-based organizations, offering community service consultations and sponsoring numerous community service programs and events.
Volunteer
Alternative Spring Break
Linfield's Alternative Spring Break (ABS) is a week-long, service-learning program. Spend the week with fellow Wildcats performing meaningful service in partnership with a nonprofit, learning about a specific social issue, developing strong civic leadership skills, and building friendships and memories that will last a lifetime.
Community Partners
We welcome your partnership! As a local nonprofit, organization or shool, we coordinate one-day service opportunities around McMinnville and seek to educate the Linfield community about ongoing needs. Your company can host a one-day project, find a student intern or volunteer, or be our guest on campus speaking in one of our classrooms.
Connect with us
We provide resources and programs that mobilize Linfield students, increasing their civic engagement capacity and connection to community. Reach out with any questions or opportunities! We'd love to connect with you.
