United Way donations increased
This year, 98 of the college’s employees contributed to the United Way workplace fundraiser, which ended Monday, Nov. 17. The fundraiser collected a total of $28,203.95, a 4.4 percent increase from last year’s total. Funds will go towards organizations that work on issues of poverty, literacy, well-being and career readiness.
Shaving for a good cause
The Student Senate has organized Shave to Give, a fundraiser for JCCC Gives. Students and faculty have pledged to dye their hair or shave their facial hair if a certain monetary amount is collected. As of press time, students were polling at the Student Senate table in COM over whether President Joe Sopcich should dye his hair red or green. Funds will be collected every Wednesday in November from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
