On September 20, a group of Fordham University Gabelli School of Business administrators and staff members joined Dean Lerzan Aksoy, Ph.D., for a group volunteering opportunity at the local Bronx organization, Part of the Solution, Inc. (@potsbronx), which is a nonprofit that offers support to the local community in areas like housing, healthcare, hygiene, and food.

The group was able to serve approximately 448 hot meals to women, men, and children from in and out of the neighborhood. Our staff helped to plate the food, serve the meals, wash the dishes, and clean the tables. One of the core values of Fordham University is service. It is important that all members of the Fordham community have the opportunity to embody this Jesuit value and live our institution's mission, especially within our local communities.
