Hunter Has Heart (HHH)

Hunter Has Heart is a student-led, year-long, advocacy-focused, leadership development program.

• Impact your local community
• Participate in small group projects
• Develop your leadership skills
• Perform community advocacy work

The main components of the program include individual volunteer work, completion of a group project, and an experiential learning trip. Last year’s program focused on the theme of food, and students shared information and advocated for healthful food access in a way that meaningfully impacts the Hunter community.

Participants must be currently registered, in good academic standing and have an interest in volunteerism and social justice. Contact the Office of Student Activities for more information.
