WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. – Penn College athletics programs gave back to their communities in a big way during the 2022-23 academic year. The Wildcats volunteered 2,494.5 hours to more than 50 causes and raised $12,907.
"One of the missions of our department is to provide students the opportunity for self-discovery through civic responsibilities," said Penn College Director of Athletics
Scott Kennell. "It's important that we recognize that we're fortunate to have the means and abilities to compete in athletics and then commit our time, efforts, and energies for those that may not be as fortunate.
"Our staff and student-athletes did a fantastic job of giving back to our communities this year."
Penn College volunteered and raised money for events such as the MLB Classic Tarp Crew, Habitat for Humanity builds, cause events (Vs. Cancer, Coaches vs. Cancer, Pink Out), several Special Olympic events, and several food drives to benefit the Penn College Cupboard, among others.
