The JaguarsCare National Day of Service movement brings together hundreds of alumni volunteers to make an impact in their own local communities - all in the name of the University of South Alabama, all on one day, April 26, 2014. Throughout the nation, USA Alumni are making a difference every day. While one day of service cannot meet every need in every community, bringing all South alumni together to make a difference at one time can have a substantial impact on both the individuals involved in this shared experience and the greater community. Projects will be alumni-led and reflect the diversity of alumni interests and passions. We encourage alumni chapters and groups to rally together for larger projects and individuals to participate in smaller communities and report their individual projects. Some projects will be big, some will be small, and together...their impact will be great.
