…A group representing KSU volunteers who went to Biloxi, Miss. for Hurricane Katrina relief talked to the center’s youth about the importance of helping those in need. After the presentation, children and teens at the center helped KSU students and faculty pack school supplies to send to children in Biloxi.

Enough school supplies were collected to send goods to two facilities.

“We’ve been collecting school supplies all around campus for the kids in Biloxi,” said Megan Odell-Scott, Ohio Campus Compact Vista Service Leader at KSU.
