students from across campus will partner with the best non-profit organizations in our area to serve our city. Consider this your invitation to a truly life-changing event! Not only will you have the opportunity to build community among your fellow Brock School
of Business graduate students, but encourage our greater Birmingham community, too. We will have the opportunity to serve together as a group, but you will register individually. Here are the steps to register:<o:p></o:p></p>
