Westwood -- School Supply Collection

The We Serve U committee would like to send out a BIG THANKS to everyone who made this year’s school supply donation drive a huge success!  With your help, the children at Westwood PreK-8 will receive:

·        400 book bags
·        320 markers
·        140 folders
·        88 packages of crayons
·        1295 pens and pencils
·        And much, much more

"There is nothing more enjoyable than having a student come into the office with a torn-up book bag and letting them pick out a new one!"

Quote from one of our Westwood Teachers:

Your continued generosity to one of WSU's partner schools is much appreciated.  Thank you!

 

Never doubt that a small group of commited people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

Ongoing Projects

 

WSU Friendship Food Pantry

The Wright State University Friendship Food Pantry is looking for volunteers to assist in the pantry. Faculty and Staff can support our students by contributing just a few hours per month as a food pantry volunteer! Contact Felix Torres @ extension 2495 or email:  torres.12@wright.edu and find out what you can do to futher the cause!!

 

Box top for Education Collection

Many of us throw away the Box Tops for Education labels that are on products we use daily. Saville Elementary is a Riverside school that WSU students currently work with. Saville has an Excellent education rating, but also has a high population of needy students. Collecting and donating the Box Tops for Education allows the school to shop for needed supplies and is an easy way we can help. If you are willing to donate your Box Tops for Education to Saville Elementary, please send them to Joanie Hendricks at 216 Medical Sciences.

Thanks to your generosity -- we have donated over 5,000 Box Tops for Education

Over 250 cards were donated to Children's Medical Center (December 2012)
