SUMMARY:The Big Event - Day of Community Service
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, Nov. 9\, 2024 \n10 a.m. to 2 p.m. \nGiving back to those who need help is what the Big Event is all about. \nThe Big Event is the single largest community service project that takes place at Monmouth University every year. Every fall\, approximately 200 to 400 members of the Monmouth University community sign up to be a volunteer at one of the 10 to 25 Big Event work sites in the towns that surround campus. \nThe Big Event has become somewhat of a national phenomenon at a number of colleges and universities throughout the United States. It originated at Texas A&M University in 1982 when 6 students felt the need to give something back to the communities of College Station and Bryan Texas. \nDuring the Spring 2000 semester\, members of Monmouth University’s Student Government Association attended the Conference of Student Government Associations (COSGA) at Texas A&M where our Senators learned all about the Big Event. They decided it was a program that should be brought back to the Monmouth community. \nTwenty four years later\, the Monmouth University Big Event has become a signature program for SGA. The Big Event is held in fall and anyone affiliated with Monmouth University is encouraged to become a Big Event volunteer. If you are a member of a club\, organization\, fraternity/sorority\, athletic team\, department\, office\, or all by yourself\, we hope you will want to join the Big Event volunteer team. \nWould you like to become a Big Event volunteer? Contact SGA by calling 732-571-3484 or email SGA@monmouth.edu.
