Hundreds of students serve the Athens community
On Sept. 21, more than 500 University of Georgia students participated in Dawg Day of Service, UGA’s largest annual day of student-led community service. Celebrating its 11th year, the event set records for the number of participating students and service sites, highlighting students’ growing commitment to community involvement.
Organized by Serve UGA – student-led groups within UGA’s Department of Engagement, Leadership, and Service – students spread across 30 diverse locations throughout Athens-Clarke County and the surrounding area. Their efforts included cleaning spaces for individuals experiencing homelessness, writing cards for memory care patients, and planting gardens.
