Provisional Project
The 2024-2025 provisionals took on two impactful projects this year, each aimed at making a meaningful difference in the community. Their first initiative was a partnership with The River Valley Child Advocacy Center, where they collected new and gently used blankets and stuffed animals to provide comfort to children who had experienced physical or sexual abuse.
For their second project, they organized a heartwarming bingo and photobooth event at Legacy Heights, a local nursing home, with the goal of spreading joy and companionship to what they lovingly referred to as the "forgotten generation." Through laughter, connection, and shared memories, they sought to remind the residents that they are cherished and valued.
