<p>Hey!</p>
<p>I am a staff member on Volunteer Emory and I’m so excited that all of the above posts mentioned VE. Emory is a very service orientated campus. Volunteer Emory emphasizes the necessity to break out of the “Emory bubble” and give back to the community around us. We have several different volunteering options. Each staff member runs a weekly service trip to all kinds of different service organizations throughout Atlanta. We also have special event service days (9/11 Day of Service, Emory Cares Day, Emory’s Day On, and the RHA Sandwich drive) and we have both Alternative Fall Breaks and Alternative Spring Breaks. I really could go on and on about Volunteer Emory, it’s a great blanket organization that provides a lot of volunteer opportunities. Now, that’s not to say that EVERY volunteer organization is through VE, there are plenty of other clubs on campus that volunteer apart from VE. It’s all about getting involved and giving back to the community. Please feel free to email me if you have any further questions about VE or volunteering on campus in general, it’s kind of my forte so to speak <a href=“mailto:Mgsmit2@emory.edu”>Mgsmit2@emory.edu</a></p>
