CCU program donates to local nonprofit

Coastal Carolina University’s Recreation and Sport Management (RSM) program donated more than $5,000 to Fostering Hope, a nonprofit organization assisting foster families in providing a better lifestyle for children within foster programs along the Grand Strand.

Over the past six weeks, RSM students conducted a sport equipment drive, collecting new and slightly used sport equipment and obtaining monetary donations to purchase more equipment. The drive encourages youth to actively participate in sports not only for health benefits but because it can provide children with tools necessary to adapt to their changing lifestyle.
