The fifteenth-annual Emory Cares International Service Day on November 10 drew more than one thousand registrants in fifty cities and seven countries around the world. Students, alumni, faculty, staff, and their families volunteered to help with dozens of community projects—from landscaping parks to packing meals—including more than twenty in the Atlanta area. Founded in 2003, the popular annual tradition is a partnership between the Emory Alumni Association and Volunteer Emory.
