Bonner Center for Civic Engagement

Engaging with Our Richmond Region

Community engagement is a strategic priority at the University of Richmond. Students, faculty, and staff engage with organizations across our region and beyond through volunteering, community-based learning and research, summer civic fellowships, and more.

The Bonner Center for Civic Engagement (CCE) is committed to supporting student engagement, faculty and staff engagement, community relationships, and institutional engagement, and is home to one of the largest Bonner Scholars Programs in the country.

Beloved Community Gathering

MLK Celebration

Every year, the University of Richmond pauses to honor Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Mark your calendar for upcoming events to reflect on current and historical movements for social justice, connect with others, and commit to action beyond the celebration itself.
