2025 Collegiate Kickoff Week

Collegiate Kickoff Week is a celebration of our student members of NAfME. The event focuses on recruiting, team-building, and advocacy activities implemented and shared by each NAfME Collegiate chapter. Kickoff Week offers students the opportunity to highlight their local programs and membership while participating in service and volunteer events.

Chapters will plan activities each day with social media promotion centered on a daily focus connecting to their state, division, and national associations. Check back often for updates leading up to this event!
