Yes, WVSU Did Care; Hundreds of Yellow Jackets Aid Non-Profits


An estimated 350 State students, faculty and staff were buzzing Saturday, showing that WVSU does care about our community.

They were at more than 30 work sites throughout the Kanawha Valley, volunteering their time for the University’s sixth annual Cares Days — painting, planting, cleaning and organizing.

Some of the locations:

  • Manna Meal,  where volunteers served breakfast  and lunch, and cleaned the kitchen and dining room.
  • Cross Lanes YMCA Child Development Center, painting classrooms and the gymnasium.
  • Kanawha Charleston Humane Association, cleaning the building, walking dogs and washing windows.
  • Charleston Family Resource Center, painting and organizing the art room and building garden beds.
  • Trip-County YMCA Camp High-Tor, doing outdoor spring cleanup such as pulling weeds, gathering sticks, raking gravel and putting down mulch.
