Each year, JHU s Office of Benefits & Worklife organizes a number of opportunities for employees to support meaningful causes that directly impact Baltimore City and its residents. In a year that brought everyone additional challenges, Johns Hopkins employees remained committed to supporting vulnerable residents of Baltimore during the holiday season.
In 2020, festive fundraising events, in-person volunteer opportunities, and celebratory ceremonies were placed on hold indefinitely.
