Update | Monday, December 2, 2024
Each year, Columbus State comes together to provide care package donations for students in Scholar Network, a support program for students with a background in foster care, kinship care, or adoption.
Student Engagement and Belonging is now collecting and purchasing food and grocery gift cards and new items such as scarves, gloves, hats, socks, household items, games, non-perishable foods, and personal care items. At least 40 care packages will be presented to students. Donations may be made until Monday, Dec. 16 at noon.
Two ways to donate:
- In-person at the Student Engagement and Belonging office in Nestor Hall 116.
- Schedule a pickup by contacting Haley Middendorf at hmiddendorf@cscc.edu.
