Giving back is a current focus for the Lowndes County Chapter of the Mississippi State University Alumni Association. Three collection drives will benefit area agencies.
The alumni chapter also encourages participation in a blood drive taking place Saturday, Dec. 5 from 9 a.m.-noon at the YMCA in downtown Columbus. Make an appointment in advance at vitalant.org and click on “donate.” Enter sponsor code “MSUAlum.”
For more information about any of the drives the chapter is supporting, contact Adrienne Morris at [email protected].
