USF Nursing Student Council sells I “Heart” USF Nursing t-shirts to raise money for B.E.A.R.S.

University of South Florida College of Nursing Student Council is selling I “Heart” USF Nursing t-shirts to raise money for the Bulls Encouraging and Assisting through Research and Scholarship (B.E.A.R.S.), a USF Nursing Team fundraising effort to donate bears to sick children in hospitals in the Tampa Bay region during this holiday season.

College of Nursing Student Council (CNSC) is doing its part to help bring a smile to children, and let them know someone cares. CNSC has raised more than $1,000 so far. The t-shirts price is $15.

USF Nursing student and CNSC Secretary, Danielle Steele, said the student council is setting a great example for future USF Nursing members to give back to the community, the College and its students.

“With our donation to B.E.A.R.S. and future donations to come, we hope that other students will see the benefit in giving back to the College,” Steele said. “We also hope that they will understand the power that lies in one single act of kindness and the wealth of good it can do for someone else.”

Through the t-shirt fundraiser, undergraduate students and class boards have also been raising money for their graduation parties.
