Community Outreach Spotlight - BGPSA

 

The UK Black Graduate and Professional Student Association (BGPSA) volunteered with Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Bluegrass on Sunday, November 17th. The Ronald McDonald House is a home away from home where families can stay close to their hospitalized child. Research shows that a family’s presence in the hospital helps children cope better and heal faster! BGPSA prepared breakfast for around 20 families that are staying at the Ronald McDonald House here in Lexington. 

The Black Graduate and Professional Student Association (BGPSA) is the primary student organization designed to address the needs of underrepresented minorities in graduate and/or professional programs at the University of Kentucky.
