Delainey Moore – Sharp Scholar, Future Nurse |
|
Freshman Delainey Moore says caring for others through service is a family tradition. “As a family, we regularly participated in community service activities, like food drives. My favorite activity happened each Thanksgiving when we’d take two massive turkeys to a local homeless shelter. It was a really big deal for those we served – and for us.”
