Volunteer Emory is still here for students and are continuing to provide students with
opportunities to engage in community both remotely and for the future when
we return to
campus. Community and connection is especially important now
and they are looking forward to
hearing from students and seeing students engage in the
opportunities available. Below are
several opportunities to engage in
leadership positions for the fall as well as remote or no contact
opportunities.
