Join Us for Pembroke Day!
Join us on the Quad as we celebrate our clubs, student organizations, community partners, and, most importantly, our Brave Spirit. The event will feature free food, health screenings, entertainment, and much more.
Pembroke Day is a wonderful opportunity to give back to our community and strengthen partnerships with the Town of Pembroke, local businesses, nonprofits, healthcare organizations, and supporters of UNC Pembroke. We anticipate participation from more than 100 vendors representing businesses, nonprofits, healthcare agencies, and student organizations.
Volunteers Needed
We are especially looking for student volunteers to assist throughout the day. Our greatest need is during the 4:00 - 5:45 p.m. dinner service, when meals will be distributed to attendees.
By volunteering, you will help create a welcoming experience for thousands of guests while demonstrating the spirit of service that makes UNC Pembroke special. Thank you for considering this opportunity to serve your university and community.
