MINGLE ALL THE WAY! Join area Penn Staters for a holiday celebration and networking get-together. If you are new to the area, this is a great way to connect with our Philadelphia area alumni groups.

Our theme for the evening will be "building community by giving back". Learn about the many ways you can easily give to others as you build new connections and grow your network.

Our featured speaker is Cindy Kolarik, the Executive Director of The Jared Box. This non-profit, based in State College, provides activity boxes for children in hospitals around the country. As part of our event, we will be making boxes to take to regional pediatric hospital units.

We invite everyone to bring a canned good or an item for the Jared Boxes. Everyone who brings an item will be entered into a special door prize drawing. More details on types of items needed will be shared in an email to those registered.

The evening will feature a cash bar, hors d'oeuvres, and ample opportunities for networking. Valet parking available. Public parking adjacent to hotel.
