FVSU’s University Today Scholars receive high praise

Members of the University Today Scholars’ Program helped spread holiday cheer to the local community by collecting canned goods and clothing from high schools, churches and neighbors. Dual enrollment students Carmen Nicholson, Shaquina Missick, Terrence Howard, and Zack Miller participated in making the project a success. Donations collected by Tonya Howard of Fort Valley Feed Center Ministries will aid needy families living in Fort Valley and surrounding Middle Georgia communities. “We have a number of outreach ministries and support services including our food bank and free clinic for medical assistance, and drug rehabilitation among others that are designed to assist the public. This donation will help us in our mission to uplift the community and motivate those in a transitional stage in life,” said Howard.
