Volunteers are needed for College Goal Sunday
College Goal Sunday is a one-day event in February where students and their families receive hands-on assistance to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). College Goal Sunday is a growing, national event sponsored by the Lumina Foundation for Education and YMCA.
We are seeking volunteers for the event. Your help is needed for registration, general student assistance, tech support, or tax preparation questions.
If you are interested in volunteering, please complete a volunteer form on the College Goal North Dakota Web site by Jan. 29. The site is www.collegegoalnd.org and the form is under the Volunteers tab (at the top of the page). The site also provides more information on the eleven locations and College Goal Sunday's history.
College Goal Sunday North Dakota will be held on Feb. 21 at eleven locations. These include Belcourt, Bismarck, Dickinson, Fargo, Fort Totten, Fort Yates, Grafton, Grand Forks, Minot, New Town, and Williston. Students who participate will be eligible to win prizes and scholarships.
The Grand Forks site is the second floor, Memorial Union, 1 to 3 p.m. Students and families are welcome at any time during the open house; however, it is suggested to allow for up to an hour to complete and submit the FAFSA. -- Christina Hutchison, Grand Forks CGS Site Coordinator, Student Financial Aid, christinahutchison@mail.und.edu, 777-4412 |
