Volleyball team players pose with the Thanksgiving basket they donated.


NSU student-athletes recently participated in the HANDY’S “Adopt-a-Family” event, where locals from the community sponsored a family and provided a Thanksgiving basket filled with all of the necessities for a Thanksgiving dinner.

HANDY was established in Broward county in 1985 and is an organization whose mission is to embrace, educate, and empower vulnerable youth to become engaged, productive adults. HANDY, which stands for Helping Abused Neglected Disadvantaged Youth, annually serves more than 1,300 at-risk children who participate in comprehensive programs that focus on education, youth development, and economic self-sufficiency. Complete Release
