 After nearly a week of collecting supplies for Hurricane Maria relief, the drive in Brainerd has come to a close. The shampoo, soap and other necessary supplies have piled up at Central Lakes College. David Kabilka is helping to oversee the project and was not surprised the community stepped up in a time of need. He saw many people stopping by campus for their first time just to donate. People that are feel that there's a there's a civic purpose to life. They don't they don't wear a badge. You know, they're not in uniform. They're not, you know, strutting around. But when the need arises, they just kind of come out. The town of Aguas Boinas is still struggling to get the supplies to all areas in the rural town. But Mayor Javier has stepped up to deliver supplies to the members in the community. His determination and leadership is making impact on students in Minnesota. Well, we're going to reflect on that. So this is a new club, civic engagement group at the college. And this is one of the things that we're going to talk about as a team. It's like, so what did you, what did you bring out of this? What did this mean to you? And that's really what I want to know from these students that are doing this. They're the ones doing it. That's what I want to know from them. The donations will be boxed up later this week and should arrive sometime next week.
