Professor Boolani supports the United Way

by Marjorie Meashaw

Ali Boolani, his daughter, Italia, and Daisy Cox at the Potsdam Neighborhood Center's food pantry. "When you help the United Way of NNY, you help the Potsdam Community Center. And that helps the Peanut Butter and Jelly program my daughter and I started two years ago with the center's director, Daisy Cox. We are now feeding 25 at -risk kids a week during the summer and we hope to grow it to help even more kids next year. I hope you will join me in making sure the United Way is there for 40 nonprofits in Northern New York, including those that serve the Potsdam area." *ALI BOOLANI* Clarkson University Assistant Professor, Physical Therapy To support nonprofits that serve children, victims of violence, senior citizens and military vets, donate to Clarkson University's United Way campaign by contacting Marjorie Meashaw at mmeashaw(a)clarkson.edu
