MOVE - Mobilizing Opportunities for Volunteer Experience

MOVE is organizing a dog and cat toy making event to make toys to be donated to local pet rescues! If you are interested in making dog/cat toys, please fill out the interest form (https://rb.gy/ubh9sk) or simply come pick up supplies! We will be distributing supplies in a socially distanced manner on Wednesday, October 14th from 8:00-10:00am and 2:30-5:00pm and on Thursday, October 15th from 9:00-11:00am and 2:30-5:00pm outside of the Pavilion, where the Student Engagement Offices are located. Everything you need to make the toys will be included, and a drop-off box for finished toys will be located in the Student Engagement Offices during the week of November 2nd-6th.

The Sustainability Committee is hosting an event partnered with Trees Atlanta! All appropriate COVID-19 protocols will be followed. Click the link below for more information: https://gatech.campuslabs.com/engage/event/6516769

The COVID-19 outbreak and subsequent quarantine has isolated many of the children in Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. We, the Medical Assistance Committee of MOVE, are hoping to bring smiles to the children's faces by accepting handwritten cards and kind notes to uplift the residents of the hospital.

Need funding for your next community service-oriented project? Applications are open! Apply to the MOVE Service Grant a minimum of 3 weeks before your next event! Forms on MOVE's Engage page.

MOVE invites you to join them in a day of service at the History Oakland Cemetery! We are celebrating the many hours of service accumulated by the Georgia Tech community by ending the year with a fun service opportunity!

The Historic Oakland Foundation partners with the City of Atlanta to preserve, restore, enhance, and share Oakland Cemetery with the public as an important island of tranquility in the heart of the city.

Participants will join the Historic Oakland Foundation to assist with improvements and general upkeep of the gardens in this 48 acre park and historic site. Participants will lay sod and otherwise beautify the historic African American Grounds. Additional gardening tasks may be undertaken depending on the number of participants and the weather, including in our greenhouse.
