Omega Psi Phi chapter sponsors Puerto Rico relief efforts
The brothers of the Mu Epsilon Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc. completed a Puerto Rico Relief Drive at Winston-Salem State University this past Friday, Oct. 6.
The brothers, in conjunction with Dr. Jack Monell, collected non-perishable items for two weeks to send to Puerto Rico. Monell, Ph.D., M.S.W., is associate professor & program coordinator of Justice Studies in the Department of History, Politics and Social Justice at Winston-Salem State University.
The massive outpouring of support was incredible and the brothers were incredibly grateful for everything donated, they said in a statement.
In collaboration with CaribeEX in Greensboro, NC, the brothers donated six crates of water and water filtration systems, non-perishable items, medical and hygiene supplies, batteries and flashlights. The representatives of CaribeEX were quite thankful to the donation and stated that all items would be shipped to their offices in Puerto Rico in mid-October.
