To help students, faculty, and staff learn about ways they might volunteer or donate, we offer the following centralized resources.
Please contact any of the them directly to identify the most up to date list of local organizations accepting donations of time or resources to aid in the COVID-19 (coronavirus) response:
If you are interested in finding ways to support local businesses, through this time of challenge, you can find more information here: Local First.
We also encourage you to regularly check the Centers for Disease Control website (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/) and the GVSU Coronavirus website (https://www.gvsu.edu/coronavirus/) for the most up to date information on how to keep yourself and our communities safe and healthy.
