THE A PROJECT
THE A PROJECT is alumni UBC’s volunteer program focused on bringing our alumni community together to support community organizations. Responding to alumni UBC’s vision ‘for a better world’, THE A PROJECT was developed to connect alumni to needs on campus and in the community to make a difference. Through virtual, individual, and group volunteer opportunities we aim to support community organizations focused on protecting the environment, food security, and access to education and resources.
