Description
The WELL program enables undergraduate students to connect with Bay Path University’s mission in challenging women to become leaders and to become confident and resourceful contributors to our increasingly interdependent world. The WELL program prepares students to be reflective and capable people, students, and professionals who can influence and advocate for others. A component of this program is a connection with a community partnership. This workshop will introduce the partnership between Friends of the Homeless and Bay Path University. As a result of this partnership a thrift shop was opened that provides a shopping experience for the homeless population allowing them to receive essential items at no cost.
