Good Luck in College from Fox Chapel Youth

Written by: Kate Snyder, Development and Donor Communications Coordinator

Heading off to college can be tough. You're leaving home for the first time. Maybe you don't know anyone at the school. What if your roommate is totally bizarre? Will the classes be way harder than high school? You mean I have to share a shower?!?

There's a lot on your mind.

It's good to have some reassuring words and well wishes as you embark on this new journey. And, thanks to the vacation Bible school kids from Fox Chapel Presbyterian Church, several of EECM's college-bound students will have just that.

Fox Chapel participated in EECM's annual Off to College Supply Drive, where local congregations put together college care kits for our students. The kits include necessities for dorm life like sheets and towels, school supplies, and miscellaneous items from microwave popcorn to rolls of quarters. The VBS kids also created hand-made cards for our kids that are immeasurably cute.

Many thanks to everyone who participated -- thanks for helping to send our students off right!
