The BIG Event at IPFW
Saturday, March 23, 2013
In 2012, IPFW was the first university in Indiana to participate in The BIG Event. The day was so successful, we're doing it again, but this time----BIGGER! So, alumni, think of BIG ways for you to be involved with this day of service. We need volunteers (individual or teams), sponsors, and donors. The sky is the limit as to how you participate, but we need everyone's help.
Contact Us Now and be a part of something BIG!
Video created by an IPFW student about IPFW's first BIG Event.
Don't just take our word for it. Read what last year's volunteers had to say about The BIG Event:
.
"I loved volunteering for The BIG Event! ... I think it was the most incredible thing I've done in the years ... [I felt] connected better with the community and IPFW."
"If we work together as students and [alumni] we can make things so much brighter ... who wouldn't want to do that?"
"The BIG Event opened my eyes to the need in the community ... I realized how I can serve to make my community cleaner and stronger." "It was amazing to see how grateful [those] ladies were ... [I] loved seeing the smiles on their faces. It was such a rewarding experience and ... helped me gain a true passion for service." "It's amazing for IPFW to come together as one unit and say things and appreciate Fort Wayne through The BIG Event!"
