Help Students Give to Jessie's Place

Jefferson State's Eta Epsilon chapter of Sigma Kappa Delta is currently accepting donations to benefit the Birmingham based women and children’s shelter Jessie's Place.

The mission of Jessie's Place is to provide a haven for homeless and hurting women and children who are seeking shelter while preparing to reach self-sufficiency. As part of their outreach, Jessie's Place is involved in education remediation, career readiness, and children's programs—just to name a few.

•  Children's school supplies
