What is Krewe du TU?
Krewe du TU is a spirited volunteer program exclusively for Tulane University faculty and staff!
Picture this: a vibrant community where your dedication and passion for service earn you more than just gratitude—they earn you points! As a member of Krewe du TU, you'll have the chance to make a real difference while having a blast. Each time you volunteer at approved events, you accumulate points that can be redeemed for fabulous rewards. Whether you're helping at Book Fest, Unified Commencement, Move-In, or Day of Service, every hour you contribute brings you closer to the Tulane community while earning exciting perks.
Join Krewe du TU, where your time and talents transform into points, and those points open doors to an even more rewarding university experience. Get ready to connect, contribute, and celebrate the true spirit of Tulane—one volunteer hour at a time!
Point Submission
To start earning points, simply look for events featuring our special QR code. By scanning the code, you can easily log your volunteer hours and accumulate points. No QR code in sight? No problem! Just ask the event staff for help or use the Volunteer Point Submission Form to submit your points. Each hour you log gets you one step closer to your next reward!
The deadline to submit points is September 1 each year. You can continue to log hours after this date, but please note that points will reset annually and won’t carry over.
Point Redemption
Your hard-earned points are your ticket to exciting rewards, and redeeming them is as easy as lending a helping hand! Krewe du TU offers a variety of perks that recognize your dedication to making a difference.
You can check your points here using the Official Points Log, which is updated weekly. As your points accumulate, you’ll gain access to our Rewards Store, where you can explore and select from a fun variety of prizes. Simply compare the point amount with the prize you want and submit a request using the redemption form.
Be sure to keep an eye on your points total and make your redemptions before September 1, when points reset for the new volunteer year. After all, your service is invaluable, and we want to celebrate it with the rewards you deserve.
