ABOUT THIS PROJECT

My project focused on supporting students in the Worcester community who experience food insecurity by partnering with Juniper Outreach to support in-school food pantries. Through food drives at athletic events, I would collect non-perishable food that students can access and bring home during extended school breaks, such as weekends and vacations.

ASHLEY'S WHY

Participating in the Engaged Athlete Fellowship allows me to use my platform as a student-athlete to make a meaningful impact beyond athletics. Being an Engaged Athlete Fellow means being part of a community that values leadership and service to inspire positive change. It is an opportunity for me to grow as both an athlete and a person while giving back to the communities that have supported me.
