MIT Community Service Fund

Your donation helps CSF provide financial support to MIT students, faculty, staff, and retiree volunteers in community service projects. If you choose to devote your energies in service to the local community, the MIT Community Service Fund (CSF) will do its best to back up that personal commitment with needed dollars. A pledge to CSF is like backing the home team — your MIT colleagues and the students we take such pride in preparing for a lifetime of service. CSF reinforces the talent, time, and effort that members of the MIT community dedicate to public service.

Through its allocation of funds, CSF sustains programs that prevent school dropouts and substance abuse, provide after-school programming, and help feed the hungry. CSF plays a crucial role in ensuring the continued success of vital community partners.
