Community 
The Ross Partners Community Service Committee provides a wonderful opportunity for partners to spend time together and meet people while contributing to the community. We organize community service events each month and assist local charities. We also coordinate with other committees so that members have the opportunity to make charitable donations when they attend social events.

The Community Service Committee is a rewarding part of Ross Partners, and we hope participating in our programs and giving back to the Ann Arbor community will be a gratifying experience.

Here is what some of our 2007 Partner Event Staff members had to say
about their experience at the RLI Foundation Session:
RLI gave me a wonderful insight into my partner's MBA experience. It
also provided me an opportunity to be part of the Ross community from
day 1 and forge lasting friendships. ~ Karishma (international)
Volunteering for RLI was a great experience for me, because I had the
chance to be immersed in what my husband was experiencing in his first
week at Ross, and also to meet national and international partners that
were in the same situation as me. I think that it was a very good kick
off for my new life in Ann Arbor. ~ Mitzi (international)
RLI was such a great way for us (Partners) to feel welcomed into the
Ross community and really be a part of the program. It was also a great
way to meet other Ross Partners and bond with them as well as members
of our student’s class. It was definitely a lot of work but I’m
so glad I did it. I highly recommend it to incoming Partners. ~ Melissa

If you are interested in working or volunteering, please send an e-mail
to RossRLI@bus.umich.edu by August 8. We will get back to you with more
information including a date for a training and information session the

We are looking forward to meeting all of you in August!

The Ross Leadership Initiative Team
