Holy Family University SAAC Creates Blessing Bags on Martin Luther King Jr. Day

Holy Family University students continued their tradition of spending the Martin Luther King Jr. federal holiday as a day of service.

The University’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) created nearly 1000 blessing bags for The Grace Project, a Philadelphia-based non-profit organization that serves adults impacted by sickness, poverty, or addiction.

“The Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service is such an amazing way to get all the athletes from different teams together to really fulfill Holy Family University’s mission of service and family,” said Megan Kennedy ’23, vice president of SAAC. “It is a great way to bond while helping out our friends in neighboring communities. SAAC service and events make me proud to be a Holy Family student.”
