When Nursing Honors students at the University of South Carolina Beaufort were assigned a service-learning project this spring, Dr. Jo Kuehn, Assistant Professor of Nursing, asked them to address a health need of a vulnerable population. The students chose Beaufort-based children’s advocacy, domestic violence and rape crisis center Hopeful Horizons. The class raised $1,345 by holding a kickball tournament on the university’s Bluffton campus, partnering with Evolve Nutrition of Beaufort to create special drinks for the fundraiser, and conducting a GoFundMe.com campaign. The class then presented a symbolic check to Hopeful Horizons Community Educator Rose Ewing. Photo by Carol Weir, USC Beaufort.
