They worked hard for several weeks to collect items to donate to the homeless. As a campus, by the end of the drive they were able to donate over 100 items to donate to the cause. Macomb County Rotating Emergency Shelter Team was an exciting organization to partner with for this event.<\/p>\n<p>Macomb County Rotating Emergency Shelter Team supports their community by helping members of the local homeless population find temporary shelter, food, bathing facilities, and clothing. They are headquartered in Roseville, Michigan. Their mission statement is: \u201cTo provide homeless and displaced individuals the opportunity for successful transition to independence!\u201d They always are focused on creating a community where every person that is experiencing homelessness can find the emergency help, shelter, and resources they need.  Their goal is to do whatever they can to empower homeless individuals and families to get back on their feet and reenter society as contributing members.<\/p>\n<p>This winter, the Ross Admissions team spearheaded this fundraiser by going into classrooms and suggesting possible items for donations. Some of these suggested items included hats and gloves for all ages and genders. The staff members and faculty also contributed to these donations. After holding a small contest between the classes, students in the <a href=\"\/programs\/medical-assistant\/\">Medical Assistant program<\/a> were able to come up with the most donations. Everyone on campus worked together to collect these items and it was very gratifying to be able to help keep the less fortunate warm this winter. Campus Director Jennifer Maniaci stated, \u201cit is always fun to go shopping and when it\u2019s for people in need it is also rewarding.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>To learn more about Macomb County Rotating Emergency Shelter Team and how you can join them in the fight against homelessness, visit their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MCREST-104769569558879\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook page<\/a> or their website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mcrest.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.mcrest.org<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This holiday season the Ross Medical Education Center campus in New Baltimore, Michigan partnered with Macomb County Rotating Emergency Shelter&hellip;<br \/><a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/ross-in-new-baltimore-joins-macomb-county-rotating-emergency-shelter-team\/\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20178,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20174"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20174"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20174\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20178"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20174"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20174"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rosseducation.edu\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20174"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
