Looking for a unique way to get involved in service? Interested in meeting other service-minded individuals at GW? Hoping to find your perfect service fit?


The Service Sampler is the Office of Community Service's newest program, which allows students, faculty, and staff to sample different service opportunities in the greater DC Area.  In addition, service participants will be able to learn about issues facing DC's community, participate in interactive discussions, and reflect on their service experience with GW faculty mentors.
