Be the Change is a national day of service, coordinated by South Asian Americans Leading Together (SAALT), that is held on campuses and in cities across the country. The event answers Mahatma Gandhi’s inspirational challenge to “be the change you wish to see in the world,” and provides opportunities for South Asians and allies to give back to their communities.

Below are many of the locations of Be the Change this year. For an updated list of Be the Change cities and campuses or for additional information about Be the Change, please visit the Be The Change website.

 Note: Some Be the Change locations will be hosting their event on a different day than October 6. Please visit our website and registration for additional information.
