Activities

Humanics in Action Club

This club used to be called Together Campaign, but is now known as Humanics in Action Club. It is our community service club on campus. In this club, I have lead things such as work with Friends of the Homeless (FOH) to serve meals to those in need, stuff bears for children in the hospital, and run a family bingo night for the community. I created three committees: Youth Program, Food Access and Homelessness, and Awareness Committee. I helped lead events in every committee and manage the organization within the committees. The committee I was most involved in was Youth Programs, where I lead and organized college awareness programs for local middle schools in Springfield, MA. I was president of the club Fall of 2017 through Spring of 2019, where I then passed the club down to focus on classes.
