At Purdue for Life, our volunteers are the heart of everything we do. Whether you’re connecting with alumni, supporting campus events, or sharing your Boilermaker spirit in the community, your time and dedication make a lasting impact on Purdue University and its global network.

Volunteers will receive access to the Purdue for Life Volunteer Manual, a comprehensive resource that outlines expectations, best practices, and helpful information to support your role.

To ensure every volunteer has the tools, knowledge, and confidence to represent Purdue for Life with excellence, all volunteers are required to complete our Volunteer Orientation and Training before participating in any activities. This orientation provides an overview of our mission, values, and programs, along with important guidelines for communication, event conduct, and safety.
