Brockway, PA —

Today students at the Brockway Center for Arts and Technology presented donations to the Clearfield County K9 Response Team and the Gateway Humane Society in their annual Service and Tree of Giving Day.

BCAT students also raised money for organizations that were dear to their heart.

Nicole Snyder, Assistant Administrator to the Executive Director of BCAT, coordinated this annual event of giving. She says her passion for animals encouraged her to choose these two organizations to donate to.

This afternoon, the Clearfield County K9 response team conducted demonstrations and gave insight on the training process for a k9.

The Gateway Humane Society was also onsite to encourage students to adopt new furry friends.

Snyder tells me the students at BCAT receive free job training and in return they are asked to give back to the community.

Today students gave presentations highlighting the organizations they gave back to.

Kathryne Miller, a BCAT student raised money towards the cystic fibrosis organization.

She says that organization is dear to her because her aunt is battling with this disease.

Like Katie, many of the students and staff at BCAT were reminded of how important it is to give back.
