Volunteer with the McCarthy Center

We are always looking for students to assist the McCarthy Center with day-to-day operations. Projects include creating marketing materials, researching policy, managing online content, and planning/staffing events.

If you are interested in volunteering with us, you can fill out our volunteer form to be added to our email list or contact Matt Lindstrom to set up a schedule for volunteering at the Center. 

‘Adopt-A-Highway’ Program

The McCarthy Center is involved in Minnesota’s ‘Adopt-A-Highway’ program, and is responsible cleaning up the roadside along CSAH 50 from Jennifer Drive to CSAH 51. The Center picks up trash once every spring and fall along this stretch of highway. If you are interested in volunteering and helping us clean the roadway, please contact the McCarthy Center.

Thanks to the awesome CSB + SJU students who came out to the highway cleanup! This is an awesome tradition at the McCarthy Center, in its tenth year this year! Our students traveled three miles of the highway and collected nine full bags of trash! You rock!
