Help East Pasco, Ocala, Jacksonville centers adopt a family
In conjunction with Catholic Charities, the East Pasco, Ocala, and Jacksonville education centers are “adopting” a family for the holiday season. While the centers’ students, faculty, and staff are providing many of the items, additional donations are welcome, said Matthew Lenihan, director of the East Pasco Education Center. The deadline for donations is at the end of the day, Wednesday, December 15. Items should be wrapped and dropped off to Saint Edward Hall at University Campus.
