Engaged Learning

USF Sacramento and Hilltop National Student Nurses Association (NSNA) have united to make a meaningful impact in the community

In a powerful initiative, USF NSNA has spearheaded a donation drive to support families devastated by the recent fires in Los Angeles. Isabelle (Izzy) Herrin, president of the NSNA at the Sacramento campus, expressed, "This is the first time we have ever undertaken a donation drive of this magnitude."

Driven by a genuine desire to aid those affected by the fires, this effort has fostered collaboration and solidarity across our campuses. Many families are still grappling with the aftermath of the Butte and Paradise fires, which occurred nearly a decade ago, serving as a poignant reminder of the enduring effects of such disasters. 

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to "Good Day Sacramento," who joined us on campus to elevate our message and rally community support for this vital initiative.

Events like this strengthen our community bonds and embody our mission to serve others compassionately. They acknowledge individuals' unique journeys and offer support regardless of their current circumstances.

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those in need.
