As one of Ohio State's engaged campuses, we connect our teaching, research, and service to issues that concern the communities we serve, the state, and the world.
A group of Ohio State Marion faculty, staff, alumni, and students from the campus social work club have teamed up to spread love and warmth to Marion as part of the third annual Loving Scarves campaign.
In hopes to eliminate food insecurity for college students in Marion, Ohio State Marion faculty and students take on a health and wellness initiative by bringing free fresh fruits and vegetables to campus. With the help of the Mid-Ohio Food Pantry and other sponsors, every 2nd and 4th Thursday of every month through April, about 150 students are served by the Fresh Express Market. This is an event that not only helps ensure the well being of our students, but also brings together faculty members, students, and staff as one strong community.
