For the 14th year, IUP's fraternities and sororities worked together to raise funds for the local Salvation Army.

This year, the students raised $4,249.90 by soliciting donations in the community. With this year's donation, the IUP Greek community has raised $40,726.50 over the past 14 years of being involved in the project.

The students presented the funds to the Salvation Army at its annual Red Kettle breakfast on November 19. The breakfast event kicks off the Red Kettle donation program in the community.

IUP President Michael Driscoll introduced the students in attendance at the breakfast to the crowd.
