Community Voices

"One of the things I've come to appreciate most about the Waltham Group is the spirit of those who participate in and coordinate the programs. Everyone is committed to his or her own goals, but is also fully invested with the larger purpose and eager to help make every program a success, not merely their own. It is truly an amazing group of people, and I am proud to be among them." ~Jessica Steinberg '10

"I think participating in the community outside of Brandeis is incredibly valuable for both our partners and us as students. It teaches us that there is more to learning than sitting in a classroom, and that people from diverse backgrounds can work and develop together. Through Waltham Group we learn to use our mind and our heart to expand ideas, solve problems and build meaningful relationships." ~Sadye Sagov '13

"Being in the Waltham Group is rewarding as it is reassuring; its comforting to know that there is a large group of like-minded, service oriented people who want to help just as much as I do." ~Nimrod Deiss-Yehiely '12

"I still remember Waltham Group Recruitment Night my freshman year.  I felt like a kid in a candy store.  I wanted every flavor!  I left with a stack of applications, flyers, and a sugar rush.  I couldn't wait to begin." ~Allie Joseph '12

Meet the Waltham Group Coordinators

Welcome to the Waltham Group Coordinators page. As coordinators, we play an important role in overseeing the 18 different Waltham Group programs. Although we each have our own academic interests and come from different backgrounds, we all came to Brandeis with a strong desire to take an active role in the university's community service club.

After a semester or two as Waltham Group volunteers, we each took the next step and applied to the coordinator position. Unlike other club leaders, a Waltham Group coordinator is a permanent position one holds until graduating. Because the Waltham Group is a student-run organization, coordinators have an important job to ensure that the needs of the community — as well as the needs and interest of all Brandeis students — are being met. If you would like to get involved with any of the Waltham Group programs, please contact us.

You can contact coordinators directly via the e-mail provided above or searching the Brandeis directory.
