The Ag Club at Southeast Community College (SCC) in Beatrice, Nebraska, has spent time giving back to the community this holiday season through multiple student-led efforts.
Over the last two months, the Ag Club participated in the Blue Valley Community Action (BVCA) Adopt-a-Kid initiative; hosted a coat drive; created a float for the Beatrice Holiday Lighted Parade; and decorated a tree in the Fantasy of Trees display. In addition, the club donates time and resources to the local food bank each month.
Kenni Woerner, an SCC ag instructor and club advisor, said they set a goal to raise $1,800 to adopt 45 children. They exceeded their goal nearly two-fold, raising over $3,000 to adopt 86 underprivileged children in the Gage County area.
