Sydney Strong part of University of Iowa day of volunteering ...

Sydney Strong of New Albin was one of more than 90 students in the University of Iowa’s College of Public Health who volunteered at non-profit and community service organizations in the greater Iowa City area the Friday (August 20) before the start of the University of Iowa’s 2021 fall semester. The community service provided the students an opportunity to connect with the greater Iowa City community and get to know each other prior to the start of classes.

The beneficiaries of the contributions made by Strong - a 2017 graduate of Kee High School and the daughter of Jason and Stacie Strong - and the other students who contributed their time included the CommUnity Food Bank, Coralville Food Pantry, Iowa City Free Medical Clinic, Iowa Valley Habitat for Humanity (which is pictured above), Johnson County Historical Society, NCJC Broadway Neighborhood Center, NCJCL Pheasant Ridge Neighborhood Center, Iowa City ReStore, Ronald McDonald House Charities, the University of Iowa Food Pantry and Wild Woods Farm.
