Homecoming Committee donates to Manhattan Emergency Shelter Inc.
Kansas State University’s All-University Homecoming Committee has donated $6,500 to Manhattan Emergency Shelter Inc. The funds were raised from proceeds collected at the 2022 All University Homecoming Philanthropy 5K Run/Walk.
Each year the Homecoming Committee identifies a beneficiary for the 5K proceeds. The Homecoming 5K is sponsored by WTC Communications.
Manhattan Emergency Shelter Inc. provides safe shelter and housing stabilization services for the homeless individuals and families of Manhattan. To learn more visit, mesikansas.org.
A check for the proceeds was formally presented by Amy Button Renz ’76, ’86, Alumni Association president and CEO, to Emily Wagner ’03, MESI director, at the K-State women’s basketball game on Feb. 12.
