It’s important to us that our students understand the impact they can make by serving their community. 💙

Today, our freshman class put that idea into action during the United Way Day of Service, cleaning and painting picnic shelters at Bob Noble Park. Their hard work made a visible difference in a space enjoyed by the entire community!

This is just the first of many opportunities they’ll have to serve, grow, and make an impact together throughout their time at UK Paducah.

sWe will be conducting a Half Pot (50/50 raffle) to raise money for our upcoming trip to Boston,MA for SWE National Conference.
A half-pot is very similar to a raffle, you purchase entries, and the total amount raised is split between SWE and the winner drawn at the end. So if we raise $5,000, both SWE and the winner will receive $2,500.
We will be hosting a live drawing with a dinner, or if you are unable to attend in person, we will be drawing on Facebook Live as well!! The dinner will be on the West Kentucky Community and Technical College at the Emerging Technology Center, room 109.
If you have any questions, please free to reach out!
Here is the link to enter the half-pot! https://checkout.square.site/merchant/MLK2YQWBK71T8/checkout/TB4LE2PPQNKLB2QGEWASXT67
