On May 9, 2025, National University successfully hosted the annual Gawad Bolunterismo: Nationalian Outstanding Volunteer Awards. The ceremony served as a powerful acknowledgment of the exceptional volunteerism and community service contributions made by dedicated Nationalians—including students, faculty, and staff.

The event highlighted the critical role volunteerism plays in promoting social responsibility and community engagement within the university and beyond. The program specifically recognized outstanding individuals and groups who had selflessly dedicated their time, skills, and effort to voluntary activities that created a positive and measurable impact on the university community and surrounding areas.

This recognition ceremony underscored the university’s commitment to fostering a strong culture of volunteering and social involvement, which remains a vital and celebrated aspect of the institution’s core values. The awards not only celebrated past achievements but also aimed to inspire more members of the Nationalian community to engage actively in civic and voluntary service, reinforcing NU’s mission to be a socially responsible institution.
