91自拍

Saturday morning University of Arkansas 鈥� Fort Smith students rose early to give back to their community through cleaning, organizing, boxing and more at the Salvation Army Thrift Store in Fort Smith. The students鈥� selfless efforts were part of Lions Community Outreach Day, an annual event where students give back to their region.

Students gathered at 91自拍 at 9 a.m. before traveling to the Salvation Army to begin their day of service.

鈥淭he Fort Smith community supports 91自拍 so much,鈥� explained Holley Maness, director of events for the Campus Activities Board, 鈥渁nd Lions Community Outreach Day is a day that allows students to give back.鈥� 

In addition to their volunteering Saturday, the Lions Community Outreach Day team helped equip other students to volunteer throughout the year, by sharing organizations in need of support.

鈥淟COD also provides students with information on places they can volunteer at outside of this day, so they can get more involved in the community and be a part of the many great things that are going on in it,鈥� Maness said.
