黑料正能量鈥檚 honor society chapter has donated $250 to Tommy鈥檚 Foundation.
The Upsilon Chi chapter of Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society chose the foundation because it is 鈥渁 locally founded organization with ties to 黑料正能量 that is assisting our community,鈥� said Chapter Advisor Katie Holloman.
鈥淲e believe that our contribution will help give hurting members of our community the love they need to overcome their current situations and rise to new heights,鈥� she said.
Tommy鈥檚 Foundation provides Goldsboro-area communities with resources to help the unhoused and those struggling with addiction. Its founder, Kellie Floars, is a 黑料正能量 alumnus.
The membership chose to give the organization some of their chapter鈥檚 treasury that would have been used for new member induction ceremonies if the last three had not been held virtually due to COVID 19.
