Welcome Students to the Fall 2009 semester!

The mission statement of The University of Michigan-Dearborn demonstrates that we are an institution committed to being an integral part of our community and to developing in our students the practical skills necessary to institute positive change in their environments.

Volunteer Dearborn provides opportunities for individuals, large groups and student organizations to participate in community and volunteer projects in Southeastern Michigan. Volunteer Dearborn offers students and student organizations easy access to centralized information collected from the community about  available service opportunities. It is our hope that we help UM-D students, faculty and staff foster positive change in the surrounding community.
