What a great week!

More than 100 CEU community members came together from May 19 to 23 to bolster student philanthropy on campus and to aid the next generation of CEU students.

Participants voted on which projects to support and donated cash to their favorites. On the final day, home-baked treats and lemonade, prepared by students and staff, were offered.
