19th Annual Outreach Tulane
Tulane University's Largest Annual Community Service Event
Saturday, August 29, 2009
8:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Outreach Tulane is a one-day community service event for incoming and returning students, as well as faculty, staff, and their families. As our University's largest annual volunteer event, approximately 1,000 volunteers will proceed to over 18 service projects throughout the city of New Orleans including Save Our Cemeteries, The Green Project, Paint Rally, Green Light New Orleans, and Operation Reach.
This year's event coincides with the fourth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, which made landfall in New Orleans on August 29, 2005. Outreach Tulane volunteers will also be supporting commemorative events around the city on that day.
The 19th Annual Outreach Tulane is coordinated by CACTUS (Community Action Council of Tulane University Students), SAFER (Student Advocacy for Equitable Recovery), Alpha Phi Omega Service Group, the Tulane Center for Public Service, and the Division of Student Affairs. This is a unique opportunity for student, faculty, and staff to serve New Orleans while also developing bonds with fellow students and community members.
