APRIL 13, 2022 — UTSA Day of Service is an annual tradition and an opportunity for UTSA students, faculty, staff, alumni and families to volunteer and give back to San Antonio.
This year’s event will begin at 7:45 a.m. on Saturday, April 16, at the UTSA Convocation Center.
It is the largest UTSA service event of the year, with 600-800 volunteers and approximately 20-25 community partners.
This year's projects will include community gardening, painting youth centers, landscaping, animal sanctuary maintenance, resource room restocking and other arts and crafts projects.
Hosted by UTSA Leadership and Volunteer Services, the event also serves as UTSA’s contribution to The University of Texas System’s United to Serve volunteer initiative, which challenges each campus in the system to develop a unique service activity.
“Giving back is part of what it means to be a Roadrunner,” said Victoria Rodriguez, UTSA assistant director of Leadership and Volunteer Services. “It’s amazing to witness the impact of our combined efforts to support agencies in our own community.”
The Day of Service kick-off will include free breakfast and other welcome activities. Participants will receive a Day of Service T-shirt.
Sign up to participate in the Day of Service by selecting a service project that connects with you.

Each fall and spring semester, students convene at the Main Campus at UTSA with booths, ideas and prototypes. A crowd of judges, local organizations, students, faculty and sponsors walk around and talk to the students about their projects and ask questions. Students get the real-life experience of "pitching" their project with hopes of getting funding or support to move to the next level.
