Our Labor of Love is about showing up for our community in meaningful ways.💛 This year, we partnered with Sleep in Heavenly Peace to help build beds for local children who don’t have one of their own. Christopher Sedoris, president of the Kanawha County chapter of Sleep in Heavenly Peace, shares the personal experience that inspired him to bring the organization to our community. As foster parents, he and his wife quickly learned how difficult it can be to find something as essential as a bed for a child in need. We’re grateful to our student athletes, volunteers and community partners who helped turn that need into action, one bed at a time.🛏️❤️ #LaborOfLove #UniversityOfCharleston #SleepInHeavenlyPeace #UCWV #CommunityService
