One BIG day. One BIG thanks. One BIG Event to say "thank you" to our Big Rapids community.
Ferris State students, faculty and staff will unite in a campus wide effort for one day to say, "thank you" to our community; one that provides constant support to Ferris State University. The BIG event impacts hundreds of community members in the city of Big Rapids and its surrounding area.
As the largest student-run service project in Michigan, The Big Event is one-of-a-kind in that it unifies the campus with the surrounding community in a showing of gratitude through service.
Students perform small service projects such as; yard work, washing windows, and painting for the residents of the community at no cost. This is a way for students to reach out and thank their community for their endless support of the campus.
Through service-oriented activities, The Big Event promotes campus and community unity as students come together for one day to express their gratitude for the support from the surrounding community.
