The KSU at Trumbull School of Nursing will host its annual Campus & Community Health Fair from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. April 30. The free event will feature a variety of vendors with health care information and screening services available for students, faculty, staff and the public.

Students, faculty and staff of KSU at Trumbull will have the opportunity to connect with local nonprofit agencies to learn about volunteer and internship opportunities available to them throughout the community at the 2014 Spring Volunteer Fair from 1 to 3 p.m. May 1.

Goals of the fair include linking students to local organizations for volunteer and internship opportunities, serving the local community by offering organizations the opportunity to recruit volunteers at the campus, answering questions students, faculty or staff members have about the Experiential Learning Requirement and Alternative Spring Break opportunities at Kent State University and providing students and local organizations an opportunity to network with one another.

Representatives from a number of local nonprofit and/or nongovernmental agencies are expected to attend.
