The West Campus community showed its “heart” once again,
as faculty, staff and students contributed to the “Have-A-Heart”
fundraiser for Oklahaven Children’s Chiropractic Center in
Oklahoma City, which for nearly 45 years has provided complimentary
chiropractic services for children without federal, state
or United Way funding.
The Have-A-Heart campaign takes place during Valentine’s Day
week and is organized by the Pediatrics Club. As a result of the
Club’s and the campus’ efforts, the West Campus is a two-time
recipient of the Golden Heart Award, which is presented to the
chiropractic college that collects the largest amount of donations
for Oklahaven.
“On behalf of the Pediatrics Club, and on behalf of Oklahaven,
I’d like to thank everyone who contributed to this year’s Have-AHeart
campaign,” said Pediatrics Club Faculty Adviser Ronald
Guild, D.C. “The number of faculty, staff and students who so
generously donate to this fundraiser each year says a lot about the
altruistic spirit and kind hearts of the West Campus community.”
