Frequently asked questions

What is BridgeU?

BridgeU is a community-led project aiming to solve the needs of both students and nonprofits alike. Many growing organizations need more volunteers to enhance their impact, and many students look for fulfilling ways to be involved in their community.

Thanks to you, our community contributors and our technical team, BridgeU is able to deliver the latest crowdsourced opportunities to students and help meet the needs of local organizations or initiatives seeking volunteers.

How are volunteers and research students selected?

Each organization has its own selection process, completely independent of BridgeU. Please visit the organization's website for more information on their policies. BridgeU solely helps organizations promote opportunities and connects them to students.
