Members of the Youth and College Division Advisory Council of the NAACP Winston-Salem Chapter gave homage to the community recently by volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House of Winston-Salem in commemoration of Black History Month. Rob Lemons, The Ronald McDonald House volunteer director, coordinated and implemented a list of duties for the youth. Several members had the opportunity to visit and restock shelves in the hospitality room of the Brenner’s Children’s Hospital in Baptist Hospital, while others remained to restock food and laundry pantries and sort donations from local donors such as SAM’s Club. The Ronald McDonald House is a non-profit organization that primarily provides resources and a space for families to live while sick children receive treatment at the local medical facilities. They offer a volunteer program every Tuesday night where volunteers can be involved from 5-7 p.m. to help support families that live there.

The Youth and College Division of the NAACP Winston-Salem Chapter is comprised of youth enrolled in middle school, high school and college, ranging in age of 13-25. The Advisory Council is led by Dr. Nedra Dozier, who also serves as chairman of the scholarship committee.

If you are interested in joining the Youth and College Division Advisory Council or interested in donating to the NAACP, please contact Reverend Alvin Carlisle, President of the Winston-Salem Chapter, at 336-767-3470.
