Click on headline for full story with photo(s) By Linda Waggener News from Campbellsville University SOMERSET, KY - Campbellsville University's Carver School of Social Work baccalaureate students enrolled at CU's Somerset location hosted a Cardboard Nation fundraiser for the homeless on April 21, 2012. This was the first Cardboard Nation at CU's Somerset center, taking place on the lawn of the Pulaski County Justice Center, downtown Somerset, Ky. Each participant was asked to spend the night in a cardboard box with only their clothes and one luxury item, a blanket. The Somerset project raised $3,000 to help the homeless for Potentials, Inc., a West Somerset 501 C3 nonprofit organization whose mission is to assist families in crisis with basic needs such as emergency shelter, food, clothes, and other purely essential items.. The "SWITCH" Club (an acronym for Social Workers in Touch Can Help) is an organization developed by social work students for people who "want to help." As a member of the SWITCH Club, students are able to prepare for service by meeting social work professionals, discover and raise awareness of community needs and enjoy fun and fellowship. Requirements include maintaining a GPA of 2.50 as a CU student, attendance at monthly meetings after paying annual $5 dues, and participating in two fundraising and two service projects each year.
