CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – The fall semester was a busy one for UNC student-athletes, who impacted Chapel Hill and the surrounding communities by volunteering for a variety of projects and in partnership with a wide range of organizations.
“Carolina Athletics strives to provide opportunities for our student-athletes to learn and grow as people, outside of their academic responsibilities and their sports,” said Korie Sawyer, Assistant Director for Student-Athlete Development. “Community outreach is a great area for that – our students learn and grow, and we’re able to give back to the community at the same time.”
Looking back on the fall of 2016, here are some of the highlights and key partners:
