Raise Your Pick Giving Day 2025

At the UTEP Center for Community Engagement (CCE), we believe that every individual has the power to create positive change. Our programs empower student participants to practice servant leadership daily, enhancing their ability to serve their university, industry, and community.

The CCE connects the University's resources with community needs, fostering healthy and mutually beneficial relationships with local partners. We support community-based internship initiatives, civic engagement efforts like voter education, and faculty partnership development.

Our programs, such as the Community Engagement Courses and the Community Work-Study Mentorship and Internship Program, allow students to collaborate with local nonprofit organizations to fulfill academic requirements. This gives them the chance to apply and enhance the professional skills they are learning through their degree programs while also contributing to the support of local nonprofits.

Your contributions to the CCE make a significant impact. By donating, you directly support students like Jenna M., who works as a student intern at the CCE to help coordinate our programs. Join us in making a difference! Please consider making a gift today to empower our students and strengthen our community. Your support is crucial in cultivating a culture of civic engagement and helping students take an active role in shaping their communities.
