2022-2023 NWFSC President’s Leadership Academy Service Project

This year’s President’s Leadership Academy invites you to provide donations to two wonderful causes: Children in Crisis and Alaqua Animal Refuge. Collection boxes will be placed in various locations (including Bldgs 400 and 310) for you to drop off any donations.
