LVC students invite members of the community to partner with them in assisting the people of Haiti.
An executive response committee gathers each Thursday at 11 a.m. in Faust Lounge to determine ways that we can help Haiti recover from a series of earthquakes that have left millions in extreme need. Initiatives will be posted to this site as they develop.
Your participation in the following student fundraising initiatives would be greatly appreciated:
