University of Florida Students Provide Flood Relief in Iowa
Walking into University of Florida’s Hillel building for Friday night services for the first time, Andrew Wyzan had no idea the opportunity that would be presented to him. Wyzan, a freshman who just graduated high school in May and began attending UF early as part of the school’s summer program, jumped at the chance to join seven other UF students and a HIllel professional to help clean up the damage to homes in Iowa caused by recent flooding that ravaged the Midwest. "It was one of the most rewarding experiences I've taken part in and I’m so happy I took the time to do it," said Wyzan, who had to take several days off from his summer classes to travel to Waverly and Mason City, Iowa with the group July 24-28.
