Welcome to BP.org!

Hi there! We’re The Berkeley Project, and we aim to permanently change the relationship between the students and residents of Berkeley through hands-on community service. If you’ve worked with us before, welcome back! If you’re new to the scene, welcome!

Each year, The Berkeley Project hosts two community-wide events: BP Day and BP Month. For each of these events, we work with local community organizations throughout Berkeley to arrange community service projects in which students and community members can participate.

The Berkeley Project registers an estimated 1700 people!

Thanks to everyone who registered for BP Day Fall 2009 this past Oct. 10!  Together, we were approximately 1700 people strong, working at 67 sites in Berkeley, contributing a total of approximately 8500 service hours total!  Congratulations, Berkeley.  There is a reason why we’re the number 1 school in the nation for public service!

Sorry, we are still tallying our numbers, but will publish accurate numbers as soon as we get them!
