Assembly for Action Conference 2019
October 18, 2019 - October 19, 2019
Assembly for Action is a student-run community service leadership conference that pairs fifty Action Scholars with local non-profits to create community service projects. Through five grants of $2,500 each, the winning “Action Plans” contribute to community development by empowering student leaders to improve the capacity of local non-profits so they can better serve Gainesville residents.
In addition to special lectures in leadership, social entrepreneurship, public speaking, and many other topics, Action Scholars will be paired with a local non-profit that best matches their preferences and work with that non-profit in an organized day of service.
Sponsored by the Bob Graham Center for Public Service, Center for the Humanities and the Public Sphere, Brown Center for Leadership and Service, UF Student Government, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Warrington College of Business, Samuel Proctor Oral History Program, Imagining America, Civic Duty, United Way, and the Community Foundation of North Central Florida.
