The Volunteer & Service Learning Center (VSLC) supports students who seek opportunities to serve others. We communicate volunteer needs in the Boston area, offer advisement and resources for service initiatives, provide educational opportunities, and collaborate with other University departments in engaging students in service.

Welles R. Crowther '99
A Legacy of Service
The Volunteer & Service Learning Center began in 2003, and through a generous gift from Patrick and Lillian Carney, the Welles R. Crowther '99 Directorship of Volunteer & Service Learning was established to support our work. We are proud to be associated with the legacy of Welles, a legacy of service and personal sacrifice on behalf of others.
