Volunteer
We encourage everyone to get involved in campus sustainability efforts from the moment they arrive at Purchase.
Volunteer Opportunities
We are always looking for passionate and adaptable volunteers to help with all of the projects happening on campus! Volunteer opportunities are open to faculty, staff, and students. It’s a great way to meet people across campus and do something good for the environment.
Current campus projects include but are not limited to the following.
- The SwapShop
- Food Recovery Network
- Native Plant Garden and Nursery
- Reproductive justice garden
- Rocket Campus Composting
Green Leadership Opportunities for Students
Students can also get involved in the Purchase College Student Government’s sustainability projects, including paid service director positions as Sustainability Coordinator, FreeStore Director, and Compost Master. Find more information about the PSGA on PantherLink
Campus Senate Sustainability Committee
Comprised of faculty, staff, and students, the Sustainability Advisory and Outreach Committee works to establish a culture of environmental stewardship as a fundamental practice and priority for Purchase College, both immediately and for the future. Meetings are open to everyone.
