About the SVF Program

The Harward Center employs seven Student Volunteer Fellows, or SVFs, who coordinate all volunteer activities for the Bates student body. Each fellow is designated a program in conjunction with a community partner (site-based volunteering); they help to design that program, recruit and coordinate volunteers for that program, and participate in that program, as well.

Below are the names and titles of the SVFs with a link to their page featuring upcoming events, updates, and helpful info and their office hours. Fellows can be found in the Harward Center for Community Parnterships at 161-163 Wood Street on the second floor, offices number 222 and 223.

If you are interesting in applying to be an SVF for the 2009-2010 school year, please click here for more information.
