Charlotte, NC- The Johnson C. Smith University Department of Athletics along with JCSU President Dr. Ronald Carter volunteered their time and effort to help build a playground at the Pawtuckett Elementary School on Moores Chapel Road Wednesday afternoon (April 21st).
This is one of many community service projects the Department of Athletics and their student-athletes have participated in this year. Johnson C. Smith cares about the well-being of local youth in hopes that they will have a brighter future. This dedicated effort should demonstrate to the students of Pawtuckett Elementary the principle behind coming together and teamwork. The Golden Bulls want to show the community of Charlotte that despite being somewhat less fortunate we value the significance of giving back.
Pawtuckett Elementary School is located in west Charlotte on Moores Chapel Road. They are home to approximately 225 students. Pawtuckett has 12 classes in kindergarten through 5th grade.
“Dr. Ronald Carter has taken the University to another level by putting an emphasis on community service,” said Director of Athletics #Stephen Joyner, Sr.#. “Our department is devoted to ensuring that our student-athletes partake in projects such as these in hopes of making a difference in a person's life.”
University faculty/staff and student-athletes provided their services from 8:00 am until 4:00 pm.
