MASSPIRG at Fitchburg State College

We're off for summer break but we'll be back on campus in the fall!

In the mean time sign-up for information on our volunteer and internship opportunities next semester and learn more about our campaigns.

We're looking forward to hitting the ground running next year on our fall campaigns, and we hope to see you around!

Local Campaign Info

We have a strong chapter here at Fitchburg State. We have always been a pugnacious crew and we have always done a TON of great stuff.

Global Warming Solutions

On December 5th, 2009 we met with other student PIRGs of Massachusetts at UMass, Boston to show support for Senator Kerry and Marquee as they head to Copenhagen to discuss legislation on Global Warming Solutions.

Check out a video of the conference:

Zero Waste

Collected 70 hand written student letters to Representative Stephen DiNatale urging him to update the Bottle Bill. The Bottle Bill was passed in 1983 so people could get deposits on various beverage bottles. We are trying to update the bill so people can get deposits on Gatorade bottles and water bottles.

Hunger and Homelessness

Worked together with other organizations on campus to help raise money, collect food, and get presents for families in the Fitchburg area. We made sure everyone would have a Happy Holiday!

Students don't have a ton of money to fight for what's right. We do have power in numbers and we CAN make positive progress. Let's come together and make some stuff happen. We work to fight for reduced student debt and textbook costs, we fight for Global Warming Solutions, we fight to increase recycling, and we fight to help the hungry and homeless. Sound interesting? Lend us an hour of your time and we can change the world.
