The Center for Service in Action (CSA) at Cal Poly connects students with meaningful community service opportunities that complement their educational experience, strengthen their understanding of diversity and social responsibility, and develop skills to become ethical and knowledgeable leaders who contribute to a global society. The CSA cultivates reciprocal service and learning partnerships between the university and community partner agencies, serving community-based organizations and governmental institutions seeking University support to address unmet community needs.

Come meet with dozens of Non-Profit and Community Organizations from health related agencies across SLO County looking for ongoing volunteers and interns for their programs supporting youth, seniors, social justice, folks with disabilities and more!

Looking to volunteer more consistently with an organization in the community?Whether you are passionate about a cause and want to get involved, or you simply have a service hour requirement to fill, stop by our office (Building 113, Room 119L) anytime M-F during business hours. One of our staff or student volunteers can sit down with you to help determine which organizations might be the best fit for you depending on your interest and availability. We will get you the resources you need! Walk-ins are welcome anytime or email serviceinaction@calpoly.edu and we can set up a time for a consultation.

The Center for Service in Action has moved locations! We are now located in the single story office attached to the Sierra Madre residence hall lobby and common room, right across from Scout Coffee, and next door to Vista Grande. We love visitors so next time you are out grabbing a coffee or meal, stop by and say hi!
