- Providing classroom assistance at Wiley Elementary School
- Packing over 500 bags at Out of the Garden Project for families in Guilford, Forsyth and Alamance counties
This is only one week; imagine what can be done throughout the year. We need more young alumni to serve and help make a greater impact. Complete the Young Alumni Council Interest Form to get involved.
