APPLY TODAY to present at Community Engagement Day @ Eagle X

We know many of you have done (or are currently doing) some great things in the community and now is your time to shine. 

Community Engagement Day @ Eagle X is coming up on April 19, 2024.  This event isn't just a chance for you to showcase your work and gain amazing professional development experience, it's also an opprotunity for you to raise awareness about the nonprofits and government agencies you worked with (and the great work they are doing)!

Although the event happens in April, the deadline to apply to present is March 15, so APPLY TODAY.  

You do not need to have your project completed until April 11, so don't let that stop you from applying.  

All details and the link to apply can be found here:  https://www.fgcu.edu/studentlife/servicelearning/students/awardsrecognition#CommunityEngagementDayEagleX 

You will have the opportunity to win awards for your work as well.  Additionally, leaders from the community will be invited to browse projects and listen to your poster presentations.  It's not uncommon that students who present are asked by local companies to apply to their internship programs or open jobs they are looking to fill.

Maybe you want to showcase a project you personally worked on this year.  Or maybe you had a great group service-learning project from class this year that you want to present about.  Or maybe your RSO did a unique project with a nonprofit or government agency that you should showcase.

The opportunities are endless; but the first step is applying to present using the link above.   

Please reach out with any questions!
