This March 25-26, we’ll celebrate our 9th annual Emory Day of Giving(EDOG). This 36-hour giving challenge unites our community — alumni, students, faculty, staff and friends — through collective philanthropy. Last year, more than 4,200 donors contributed over $1.4 million to support scholarships, research, campus activities and more.

During EDOG, you can provide direct support to your favorite Emory cause while engaging in friendly competition. Giving during time-based challenges will win bonus dollars to causes. You can also double your investment through matching opportunities through the day.

Will you join the CEBA board in our most successful Emory Day of Giving yet?

CEBA is excited to invite you to a very special Oxford networking event on February 19 from 6:30–8:30 PM in Phi Gamma.

It is hosted by Oxford’s BSA and African Caribbean Student Union (ACSU).

Many of you joined us last year and saw firsthand how meaningful this experience was for students. It was such a success that they asked us to bring it back again this year.

We truly appreciate your support in making this another memorable evening. Please feel free to share this invitation with your circle of friends as well.
