Our teams in Emory Advancement and Alumni Engagement work to inspire meaningful, lasting relationships that support Emory's mission to serve humanity.

We have expertise in event planning, volunteer programs, annual giving, stewardship, legacy giving, and other related areas. Many of us are Emory alumni and donors ourselves, and all of us are deeply committed to helping people connect their interests with exciting ways to get involved. Our leadership team is here to help you identify areas at Emory where your passion and support can intersect. We would love to discuss giving and volunteer opportunities with you.
