Honours & Spotlights

 

Give time. Make impact. Be celebrated.

At JMSU, we’re proud of the students who go above and beyond to make a difference through volunteering. Whether you're giving back to the community, leading student projects, or creating positive change on campus, your time and effort matter. This is where we celebrate you — the changemakers, the supporters, the everyday heroes. Explore the stories, achievements, and recognition of those who step up and give back. Because your impact deserves the spotlight.

Volunteer Spotlights

Every volunteer has a unique story — from those just starting out to those who’ve dedicated countless hours to causes that matter. Our Volunteer Spotlights are here to celebrate their journeys, showcase their achievements, and inspire others to get involved.

Whether you’ve contributed to local community projects, supported peers on campus, or taken part in national campaigns, we believe every act of volunteering deserves recognition. This space highlights the people behind the progress — the students who make JMSU a more connected, compassionate, and vibrant place.
