Thank you !!!!!
We appreciate your involvement in the 2011-2012 academic year and are moved by the generous donations you provided for the toy drive and coat drive. Both events were a great success! We were overjoyed to have so many students attend the Toy Drive Wrapping Party. The SSWO provided a party and gifts for the children of Catholic Charities of West Tennessee (CCWT) Refugee and Immigration Svcs. We had an amazing time and are grateful to everyone who participated. We look forward to a successful 2012-2013 year as well.
The "Coats of Compassion" coat drive collected over 40 winter coats!!! Adult and youth sizes were donated to Streets Ministries non-profit organization who serve students of Booker T. Washington High School among others in the area. The smaller sized coats and various toys were donated to CCWT's Sophia House.
Nine blankets were made and three donated sleeping bags were distributed downtown to those who were in need of warmth.
Our most recent event ,"Meet and Greet" provided an opportunity for swrk students and swrk professors to meet and become acquainted with each other and the swrk program. This was an excellent time for the arriving swrk majors to get advice from the swrk majors who will be graduating this year. Our swrk professors are extremely busy and we are thankful for your time and participation!
