Give to the Binienda Center for Civic Engagement
At the John J. Binienda Center for Civic Engagement, students are at the center of meaningful partnerships that connect campus and community. Through hands-on experiences, leadership development, and public service, our students are preparing to become the next generation of civic leaders.
Your support makes this work possible.
Gifts to the Binienda Center directly create opportunities for students to learn, lead, and make a difference through:
- Student stipends for programs like the Worcester Civic Leaders Program
- Community-based learning and partnership initiatives
- Civic engagement events, speakers, and experiential opportunities
- Innovation grants that support new ideas and local impact
- Faculty development that strengthens civic learning across the university
Every contribution—no matter the size—helps expand access to high-impact experiences and builds a stronger connection between Worcester State University and the communities we serve.
