UB faculty and staff are invited to take part in UB Community Day, a day of service taking place April 12 in the University Heights neighborhood adjacent to the South Campus.

The event, organized by the UB Office of Community Relations, will begin at 9 a.m. with registration and a light breakfast and conclude around 2 p.m. with lunch. Its goal is to build bonds between UB faculty, staff and students and the broader University Heights community.

Families are welcome — children should be between the ages of 13 and 17 and accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Volunteers will work on such projects as painting, preparing community gardens and neighborhood flower beds, removing graffiti and general cleanup tasks.

For more details, view the online flyer.

Those interested in volunteering should contact Matt Kopalek at kopalek@buffalo.edu.
