A brief description of the institution’s employee community service initiatives:
Arizona State University alumni from around the nation participated in volunteer projects as part of the ASU Cares: Day of Service organized by employees of the ASU Alumni Foundation. The ASU Alumni Association, sponsor of the annual event, partners with its alumni chapters from across the United States to help Sun Devils work together to provide service to their local communities. Every year, all ASU students, faculty, staff, and alumni are invited to participate. The association’s intent is to produce a day of national day of civic involvement, according to Christine K. Wilkinson, president of the ASU Alumni Association. https://alumni.asu.edu/news/story/asu-cares-day-spreads-message-community-service-coast-coast In addition, various departments and offices offer community service and volunteer opportunities and provide incentives that match their workplace. For instance, the Julie Ann Wrigley Global Institute of Sustainability helped organize a special Veteran's Day volunteer opportunity to assist Habitat for Humanity in small rehab projects for Veteran homeowners in a neighborhood in east Tempe.
