This annual fall campus clean up is organized to beautify UNM's campus each year before Homecoming Week. Hundreds of volunteers will spread out across campus to rake leaves, pull weeds, plant flowers and trees, lay mulch, and more! Afterwards volunteers gather for a celebration luncheon and picnic with free food, games, and prizes.
Community Experience partners with United Blood Services to put on the largest blood drive on campus! Blood donors and volunteers are encouraged to wear costumes to donate blood and spread the word about the drive. CE Volunteers work hard each fall to sign up hundreds of blood donors to make a lasting effort on the people of New Mexico.
CE Volunteers set up an annual food drive each fall to benefit the hungry families of the Albuquerque area. They have partnered in the past with Albuquerque's Roadrunner Food Bank and the Storehouse. Collection Bins are distributed around campus, including the Student Union Building and the Residence Halls areas.
Each year, CE coordinates a campus wide giving tree where the UNM community donates gifts and supplies to be given to area charities and families who cannot afford to purchase gifts for the holidays. The tree is located in the Student Union Building atrium and gift tags decorate the tree. Simply take a tag and return it with the requested item to donate to the Giving Tree. CE volunteers then distribute the donations to the arranged charities.
Lobos Bleed Red in February! CE partners with United Blood Services to put on a blood drive in competition with New Mexico State University.
The Community Experience holds an annual event known as The Spring Storm. Countless students, Staff, and Faculty from UNM participate in a one-day service project. This event offers a fun way of giving back to Albuquerque through a massive volunteer force. The day starts at University stadium. Breakfast is provided. Then everyone heads out to projects across Albuquerque. After three and half hours of work everyone heads to Johnson field for Lunch, prizes, fun, and Student Special Events Fiestas.
