Like teamwork? Join the Silver Gopher Service Corps
If getting to know more retiree colleagues and serving the University community were among your goals in joining UMRA, sign up for one of the Silver Gopher Service Corps volunteer projects and come for the fun—and teamwork!
The Silver Gopher Service Corps was launched in 2023 with recognition that many UMRA members like opportunities to get to know each other better, and also are interested in using their energies and talents in service to the University and broader community.
Silver Gopher projects are open to all UMRA members. These projects are selected because they support a team-oriented volunteer experience in addition to filling an important service need.
Greeting prospective students and their family supporters on campus, assisting with food distribution in communities experiencing food insecurity, or helping restore natural habitats are among the upcoming Silver Gopher projects.
