Impact on Haiti
Nathalie Cajuste, Faculty, School of Education, Padrón Campus
In the spirit of making an IMPACT and reaching out to our neighbors, let's collect empty recycled pill bottles and some first aid items (bandage, alcohol etc...) for Haiti. We are hoping to collect and ship as many as possible, as these bottles can be a luxury there. Let's brainstorm together, and help us spread the word as we are hoping to have boxes at multiple campuses where people can drop them off whenever they are on campus. Join us for this collective effort, and find out how you can help!
