No Ordinary Joe With Cup Of Coffee

No Ordinary Joe

In support of DEF’s behavioral health initiative Joe’s Fund, we invite you to our next No Ordinary Joe event on Thursday, May 2nd at 7pm at Waller’s Coffee House. The evening of live music will feature students from Decatur High School’s Exploring Music Club. Waller’s is the perfect setting for an intimate evening of supporting our students’ self-expression AND Joe’s Fund — a huge thank you to Waller’s for donating their space for our event!

Celebration of Excellence

Every May at Agnes Scott College, DEF pays homage to the accomplishments of our scholarship recipients during the prestigious Celebration of Excellence. This cherished evening celebrates our graduates as they embark on the next steps of their educational journeys and honors our donors who make these moments possible.
