2013 Emory Community Giving
What Charities Can I Support?
2013 Charitable Partners
Nine charitable partners participate in the 2013 campaign. Each partner is a nonprofit federation that raises funds for a group of its member agencies. The federations receive and disburse employee gifts to their member agencies and annually certify them for Emory and other workplace campaigns.
