WEST HAVEN, Conn. – The University of New Haven women's basketball team volunteered at the West Haven Community House Family Fun Walk on Saturday, October 6. A not-for-profit organization, the West Haven Community House provides services to local children, adolescents, families and individuals with disabilities.
The Chargers' student-athletes and coaching staff was scattered along the two-mile route along the Long Island Sound. Participants completed different tasks along the route, with New Haven student-athletes running those activities as well as providing encouragement.
The University of New Haven Department of Athletics is dedicated to serving its campus, local, national and global communities. In concert with the NCAA Division II initiative of service as one of the six key attributes that summarize the Division II student-athlete experience, all Charger athletic programs will perform community service throughout the 2013-14 academic year. New Haven student-athletes compete annually for the Charger Cup, which aggregates each team's athletic, academic and service achievements.
