The University of South Alabama College of Medicine’s chapter of Alpha Omega Alpha medical honor society is hosting a coat drive to benefit the homeless of Mobile. Collection boxes are located in the student affairs office of the medical sciences building on USA’s main campus, the USA Medical Center lobby, and the USA Children’s and Women’s Hospital lobby.
The honor society is asking for new or gently used coats to be dropped off at collection centers before Dec. 20, 2013, in order for them to be distributed at a health fair for the homeless in January.
“This is a great opportunity to share some of our blessings with those who are less fortunate than us,” said Sarah Bragg, Alpha Omega Alpha president.
For more information on the coat drive, contact Bragg at seb907@jagmail.southalabama.edu.
