Days of Caring
Days of Caring is the most encompassing national service effort - a contagious phenomenon of helping others that anyone can join!
The Office of Campus Activities & Programs serves as the hub for our Days of Caring effort at UNCG. However the Office of Leadership & Service Learning also supports the initiative.
The 2009 Days of Caring effort runs from September 21-October 21.
