In an effort to alleviate the isolation and loneliness that many seniors experienced during the coronavirus pandemic, the Penn State Berks community came together for a new initiative – Operation Smilegram.
Penn State Berks students will hold two important community service events in November. They will transform Opportunity House, the Reading emergency shelter, into a five-star restaurant on the evening of Thursday, Nov. 7, and assist with the breakfast for veterans at Country Meadows of Wyomissing on Monday, Nov. 11.
