Volunteer Opportunities

  • CCC Conversation Partners Wanted

    Are you looking for volunteering opportunities? Do you like meeting new people and learning about different cultures? 

    Join UConn's Cross Cultural Connections (CCC) to volunteer as a Conversation Partner for the spring 2022 semester! CCC pairs undergraduate international and domestic students as conversation partners. International students can strengthen their grasp of the English language and familiarize themselves with American culture, while student conversation partners get the opportunity to learn about different cultures. Both students also get the opportunity to make a new friend!

    Conversation partners are assigned based on mutual interests, and meet on their own time for four hours each month (average one hour each week) to converse. CCC will also host several group meetings to help foster a sense of community and friendship among our members. 

    To apply as a volunteer, please fill out this Google Form. To apply as an international student, please fill out this Google Form. 

    Applications are being accepted until 11:59pm on Friday, February 4th. We look forward to having you!
