Alumni Relations & Volunteer Engagement

Xenia: It’s About Timê

In 2021, during the darkest days of the pandemic, Reed's Alumni Board launched the Xenia initiative to share the countless examples of Reedies’ generosity and hospitality—the Greeks termed this “xenia." The tradition has continued each January to connect members of the Reed alumni all over the world through their shared commitments to volunteerism, community service, and acts of kindness.

The Alumni Board invites you to share how you've engaged with your community over the last 12 months. Between January 1 and January 20, fill out the form to tell us about your volunteerism and receive a free sticker designed by Parker Miraldi ’25!  

For a chance to be featured in our Alumni Xenia highlight reel on social media, submit a photo of yourself engaged in your act of service. Email it to us at alumni@reed.edu!
