During the game, different aspects of the preceding week will be featured, and GenerAction’s “What’s Your Action” video will be premiered. The GenerAction Week concert will last from 3:30 pm until 6:30pm and reduced-price ticketing will be provided only to those who participated in the events of GenerAction Week. Additional tickets will be made available for the general public, and the proceeds from these ticket sales will be allocated towards EACEF’s Shalom school construction project in Uganda, as well as to a new fund for innovative student-led social change ideas.

Over the course of the week, creative service opportunities will be offered on campus, at Fraternity and Sorority houses and at off-campus locations. In addition, GenerAction will be hosting its Social Action Speaker Series, including addresses from Liz McCartney, 2008 CNN Hero of the Year; Clare Richardson, President and CEO of the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund; and UNC's own Ralph Byrns, professor of Economics.The culmination of the week-long push for service will be a benefit concert on Sunday, April 11th.
