Student Activities

Since 2009, Golden Flashes have come together to volunteer for our blue and gold communities around the world. What was once a day of service is now a weeklong initiative, celebrating all the ways Flashes Give Back! This year Flashes Give Back Week is April 13-18.

View the ways you can get involved below!

Join In

During Flashes Give Back Week there are more than 50 volunteer opportunities throughout the week, including 20+ opportunities on the Kent Campus and nearby in Portage County.

Say Thanks and Learn Why

Kent State is again celebrating Thank-a-Giver (TAG) Day, a tradition that allows the university and its students to share their gratitude for all those who support our community.

Come say thanks in a variety of ways on Thursday, April 16, from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. on Risman Plaza. By participating you will be eligible to win a Kent State mini fridge or the chance to be driven around campus in a golf cart for a day.
