Redbirds make an impact, it’s what they do. They invest in communities, strive to make the world a better place, and give help when those around need it most. This year, Illinois State University wants Redbirds to show the world how they care by being a part of #RedbirdImpact Month and reaching our goal of 450 service hours.
Alumni and friends can join a Redbird scheduled #RedbirdImpact service project including a special day on campus. Can’t make it to one of those scheduled activities? Register any volunteer hours between now and the end of June to help reach the 450-hour goal. Each time an alum or friend submits hours, they will also be entered to win the summer impact prize that will include items to enjoy a relaxing day outside after working hard to make a #RedbirdImpact.
Redbirds can also make a #RedbirdImpact with a gift to the area of campus they are most passionate about. Help reach the University reach its goal of $30,000 too! Find out which areas of campus want to make a #RedbirdImpact by visiting the #RedbirdImpact website.
