Flashes Give Back Week Is April 21-26, 2025

Since 2009, Golden Flashes have come together to volunteer for our blue and gold communities around the world. What was once a day of service is now a weeklong initiative, offering even more ways to give back. 

Join In

Volunteer at Kent State or in your local community. Whether you’re passionate about combating food insecurity, improving literacy among K-12 students, creating crafts and notes to uplift your community, cleaning up and improving spaces or donating supplies that support Kent State students, you can give back to the area that means the most to you. This year, we are excited to offer in-person volunteer opportunities and a variety of virtual options. The deadline to register to volunteer for Flashes Give Back Week has passed, but you can still make a difference! Sign up to serve as a mentor to current Kent State students through our new mentoring platform, Flashes Connect.

Give Back

Make a gift to the Kent State cause or initiative that matters most to you.

Say Thanks

Share gratitude for those who support our community by telling us how scholarships impacted your Kent State experience. Donors appreciate hearing directly from the students and alumni who have benefitted from these scholarships and seeing the positive impact of their philanthropy!

One person can make a difference. Together, we make an impact. 

This Flashes Give Back Week, show us all the remarkable ways you support our Kent State community.
