Volunteer Service & PhilanthropyOn Friday, members of the SU Alumni Association board of directors will be volunteering at the King's Kettle food bank in Shippensburg. All are welcome to join them. Additionally, each year the SU Student Homecoming Committee chooses a philanthropy to receive a donation consisting of the proceeds from homecoming events and various fundraising activities. This year’s committee has selected the Shippensburg Public Library Capital Campaign to be the 2011 SU Homecoming Philanthropy project. They have recognized the Shippensburg Public Library as an essential component of the Shippensburg Community and would like to help improve the services offered to the entire Shippensburg Community.
