April 17, 2024Excelsior University Volunteer Week
As part of Excelsior University’s annual Volunteer Week, University staff volunteered with eight charitable organizations in the Albany community from April 8-12, including Refugee & Immigrant Support Services of Emmaus, the Capital City Rescue Mission, the Ronald McDonald House, the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society, Habitat for Humanity, Fisher House, Albany Pine Bush Preserve, and the Underground Railroad Education Center.
The volunteer opportunities were organized by Excelsior’s Community Engagement Group, a staff committee dedicated to coordinating charitable programs throughout the Albany area. In addition to Volunteer Week, the Community Engagement Group collects hundreds of donations annually to benefit Albany County Adopt-a-Family and its own Snacks for Students program, which provides healthy snacks for Troy and Albany High School students in need on a monthly basis.
