Center for Social Impact

Miami University Regionals is committed to building a culture of engagement on campus and in surrounding communities by fostering transformation through volunteerism, philanthropic initiatives, and democratic engagement. Through this, individuals develop insights, ideas and relationships that enable them to change the lives of those who live in their neighborhoods and nations for the better.

Miami University Regionals was created by the people for the people. Because of this, we have a rich history of commitment to Hamilton, Middletown, and more broadly, Butler County. Our leadership has embedded a regional orientation into daily campus life in various ways. On behalf of Miami University Regionals, the Center for Social Impact is committed to enhancing and deepening community relationships to create a more vital, viable, and engaged Butler County.
