Welcome to the NYC page for the Yale Day of Service 2011!

On May 14 and select other dates (see event details below),  thousands of Yale Alumni, family members and friends will gather to volunteer for meaningful events and projects ranging from the labor intensive (sprucing up parks, planting gardens & painting) to the more intellectually stimulating (assisting with job applications & and tutoring) throughout the New York City Area and around the globe.

On this page, you can find a sortable list of service sites in the New York area, with links to registration, as well as an interactive map.
