The Office of Student Engagement and Multicultural Affairs will be offering students a trip to work with the Mid Atlantic Border Collie Rescue Center during fall break, and we need an adviser to accompany them on the trip!

The Mid-Atlantic Border Collie Rescue (MABCR) is a haven for Border Collies that have been discarded, neglected, abandoned or stray. Many of these dogs are turned into animal shelters through no fault of their own, but because their previous owners found themselves unable to handle the challenges border collies offer or because changes in their lives left them unable to properly care for their dogs.

The group will be engaging in a variety of activities with the animals, as well as helping staff at MABCR make improvements and repairs to the property and facilities of the center.

The primary role of an adviser is to assist with driving an IC vehicle, manage the group’s budget and travel itinerary, and to be available as a resource for the group and the student leader. Advisers travel entirely for free and all arrangements are made through OSEMA. This is a great opportunity to travel and volunteer alongside students who are passionate about giving back!
