Each year, student and faculty volunteers of Rowan University engage in a community-wide cleanup of our hometown, Glassboro called Back to the Boro.  They do this to thank the citizens of Glassboro for their continual support of Rowan and our students.  Student volunteers visit the homes of Glassboro residents and perform needed household duties such as cleaning, raking leaves, pulling weeds, painting, and other tasks they may have difficulty doing themselves. For more information contact Andrew Perrone at volunteer@rowan.edu - (856) 256-4597 or visit their website.
