Board Match and Volunteer Fair with Great Rivers United Way

Looking for ways to get involved in the La Crosse community? Join us for a Board Match and Volunteer Fair hosted in partnership with Great Rivers United Way as part of Social Justice Week 2026.

Local nonprofit organizations will be present to connect with students, staff, and faculty interested in volunteering, serving on nonprofit boards, or supporting community initiatives across the Coulee Region. This event offers a chance to learn about the missions and impact of organizations working in areas such as youth development, housing stability, environmental stewardship, community health, food systems, and disaster relief.

Representatives from more than twenty local organizations will be available to share opportunities, answer questions, and help you find meaningful ways to contribute your time, skills, and leadership.

Stop by, explore the organizations, and discover how you can take action in your community.
