UAB faculty, staff and students gave back to the community by partnering with Hands On Birmingham for a UAB Day of Service, Monday, Jan. 18.

Hands On Birmingham encourages volunteerism in Birmingham by involving employers in employer-sponsored, group and individual participant volunteer projects. UAB sponsored the UAB Day of Service to encourage employees to participate in one of the many volunteer opportunities.

The project was the prelude to UAB Community Week, which began Saturday, Jan. 23. Visit the UAB Campus Calendar at www.uab.edu/calendar for a list of Community Week events.
