NRHH puts on a large Breast Cancer
Awareness Fundraiser in October. All proceeds go to the Mills Breast Cancer
Institute at Carle Foundation Hospital in Champaign, IL. This institute was
chosen because it helps the local community. This fundraiser starts with the
selling of T-shirts. The goal is to have these shirts worn on the same day in
order to raise awareness. There is also a dunk tank in the south quad during
the week. This year NRHH’s Breast Cancer Awareness week will be September
28—October 2, with the dunk tank on October 1st.
NRHH is
preparing two other large fundraisers. One will be in the fall and one will be
in the spring. Proceeds from these fundraisers go towards housing scholarships
(link to scholarships here). Keep checking this link for more information about
service opportunities!
NRHH members must have 4 service hours per semester to stay active in the organization. While helping with these fundraisers counts, we are looking to become more involved in other service opportunities throughout the year. Our fall leadership retreats now have a community service component.
