Cameron DeSteno serves the community on Make a Difference Day

2017 Nov 2

SUNY New Paltz student Cameron DeSteno of Middletown, N.J. volunteered in the communiity on Make a Difference Day 2017.

The 13th annual Make a Difference Day enjoyed one of the highest student participation rates in the program's history, as nearly 350 SUNY New Paltz students gave their time and energy on Saturday, Oct. 21, to more than 30 regional non-profit organizations, environmental causes and youth centers.

"Colleges and universities exist to educate the next generations of contributing, thoughtful citizens," said President Donald P. Christian. "But we also exist in a broader community, draw on that community, and have responsibilities to serve our communities. Our students' volunteer work today helps serves that purpose for New Paltz."

Make a Difference Day is jointly organized by the Office of Student Activities & Union Services and the Career Resource Center. Visit them for more information about how to get involved with this and other volunteer opportunities.
