A local organization is holding an event next week to celebrate student and faculty civic action as well as nonprofit cooperation.
The Institute for Nonprofit Leadership at Slippery Rock University is holding an event called Building Bridges: Connecting University and Nonprofit Communities on Friday, April 19th in the Smith Student Center Ballroom.
This event was formerly known as the Nonprofit Academy Awards Gala but this year will include two separate awards sessions. One will see over 30 students recognized for accomplishments in civic action categories while the other celebrates the work of nonprofits. The evening will also include a dinner with remarks from SRU President Dr. Karen Riley.
Cost is $50 per person and registration is requested by tomorrow (Wednesday) through the SRU website.
