Dear Colleagues,<\/p>\n
As the campus community begins a 12-day mission to provide new, warm clothing and personal care products for the guests at Joseph’s House in Troy, the Dental Hygiene Department is leading the way with its fund-raising efforts.<\/p>\n
Dental Hygiene has a long history with Joseph’s House, where students and faculty volunteered<\/a> to cook a dinner for 60+ guests who sought shelter there on a recent cold night.<\/p>\n Currently, the department is selling dental care kits (toothbrush, floss, mouth rinse and regular-size toothpaste) for only $2 per bag. The proceeds, along with those earned through a dental product package recycling program, will benefit the 12 Days of Giving<\/strong> project.<\/p>\n (Stop by FTZ 127 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday to buy the dental care kits. They make great gifts! Please call ahead for\u00a0large orders, 518-629-7400.)<\/p>\n The goal for 12 Days of Giving<\/strong> is to collect much-needed personal care necessities and NEW clothing (especially cold-weather gear) for the shelter guests, both men and women. We’re aiming for 1,200 items!<\/p>\n As donations are collected, they will be highlighted in the Campus Chronicle as inspiration throughout the 12 Days of Giving<\/strong> that will conclude on Thursday, Dec. 13 (weekend days are not included). It is my hope that there will be at least one act of generosity or creative fund-raising tactic to mention every day of this giving initiative!<\/p>\n Please see the 12 Days of Giving kick-off article<\/a> that appeared in the Campus Chronicle on Nov. 27 for important details on what items are most needed and how to make a monetary donation.<\/p>\n If you have questions, please feel free to contact me at c.bosco@hvcc.edu<\/a>\u00a0or (518) 629-7409 or Laurie Conroy at l.conroy@hvcc.edu<\/a> or (518) 629-7887.<\/p>\n The holiday season is once again upon us, and I would really love to see Hudson Valley employees join together to help those in our community who are less fortunate.<\/p>\n Sincerely,<\/p>\n Carol Bosco <\/p>\n Published:<\/strong>\u00a0Wed, 28 Nov 2018 13:10:06 +0000 by\u00a0d.gardner<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Dear Colleagues, As the campus community begins a 12-day mission to provide new, warm clothing and personal care products…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2086,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11800","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-campus-announcements"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11800","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2086"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11800"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11800\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11800"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11800"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11800"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
