Hornet Volleyball and Men's Soccer traveled to Trinidad December 1-13 to play, to serve, and to learn. Our service included time at St. Mary's Home for Children in Port of Spain, where all the children are wards of the state. When we asked the administrators what they needed for the children, they said "school and craft supplies that we simply don't have here." So in addition to asking our players to bring a gift back to the children, we are opening it up to the Kalamazoo community.
If you wish to donate any school or craft supplies for children ages 3-18, there will be boxes in the offices of Coach Hess and Coach Shabazz. Our goal is to ship them out January 8. Please send questions to Jeanne.hess@kzoo.edu or Lumumba.shabazz@kzoo.edu
