The Center for Women’s Health and Human Rights welcomes, encourages, and relies on volunteers for its success. Whether it’s a one-time stint on a particular project, or an ongoing, weekly commitment, your efforts are vital. Volunteers contribute time, energy, ideas, and enthusiasm to the Center.
Please contact us about possibilities for volunteering that would work for you.

Become an Intern

The Center is happy to provide internships for appropriate undergraduate, graduate, and professional students residing in the Boston area. Internships can be invaluable for students who wish to learn by doing, gain hands-on experience, expand their networks, build their resumes, and contribute to a good cause.
Please contact the Director, Amy Agigian, if you would like to discuss an internship at the Center.

Donate

The Center deeply appreciates financial contributions of any amount. All contributions will be used to carry out our mission of promoting the health and human rights of women and girls everywhere! Contributions are tax deductible, and should be made out to Suffolk University—please note “CWHHR” on the memo line.
In-kind contributions are often welcome as well. Please see the Center’s Wish List for our current needs.

Sponsor an Event or Project

We encourage contributions that are dedicated to a particular event or project. Sponsoring a project or event ensures that it will have high priority, and will bear your mark (unless you wish your sponsorship to be anonymous). Please contact the Director, Amy Agigian, if you would like to discuss sponsoring a Center event or project.

Become a Community Partner

The Center wishes to form partnerships with local organizations that are dedicated to women’s health and human rights.

• We envision Community Partnerships as mutually enriching collaborations among academics, advocates, and service providers sharing strengths, resources, and information for the benefit of all.
  
• Where appropriate, the Center may provide Community Partners with consulting and training, and/or with student volunteers (service-learners).
  
• In return, Community Partners may provide speakers, sites for research projects, opportunities for networking, and/or service-learning opportunities for Suffolk students.

If your organization would like to discuss becoming a Community Partner, please contact the Director, Amy Agigian. email:aagigian@suffolk.edu
