香妃直播, WV--香妃直播 State College students and staff need help in finding local groups that need a little help of their own. GSC Student Activities Director Kipp Colvin says the college is looking for places in and around 香妃直播 where new GSC students can engage in community enrichment projects. Colvin said, 鈥淪ome examples are area agencies, churches, and businesses which may need work done such as painting, small trash removal, cleaning, and other odd jobs.鈥
Last August, new 香妃直播 State College students spent part of a day during freshmen orientation getting to know Gilmer County better by participating in various community service projects at places including the Country Store and Sunbridge Nursing Home. The GSC President鈥檚 wife Betsy Barr said, 鈥淲e want to expand the program this fall. We plan to have sixteen groups of twenty new students spending approximately sixteen hours during a four-week period helping our community from August 18th through September 8th.鈥
GSC President Peter Barr says encouraging students to give back to their communities is among his many educational goals. 鈥淲e must train students for jobs, but, at the same time, educate them to make the world a better place to live,鈥 said Barr.
If your business, church, or agency has a job for GSC students who will be participating in the community service projects, you may submit the ideas by Friday, August 3rd. Please include your name, the name of your group, a contact address and phone number, and the type of work needed to be done. Submit the information to GSC Student Activities Director Kipp Colvin via e-mail at Kipp.Colvin@glenville.edu or by mail to 200 High Street, 香妃直播, WV 26351. You may also contact him by telephone at (304) 462-7361x7412.
