My favorite part of Arkansas State University is the wide variety of volunteer opportunities that this campus offers. Whether being a weekly volunteer at the A-State Food Pantry, volunteering with food recovery, or the other countless, countless community outreach programs, A-State gives students the ability to give back to others and help those in need!
