Name: Abbey Weit
Year: Junior
Our very first Theta Spotlight is shining on junior Abbey Weit and the coat drive she ran this winter. This Thanksgiving Abbey and her family went to the Light House Shelter in Annapolis to drop off a Thanksgiving meal for the less fortunate. However, Abbey soon discovered that the shelter had been given little by the surrounding community to donate to the needy. So she came up with the idea of a coat drive sponsored by the UMD Greek community. Knowing how fortunate all of us are to be a part of such an amazing group of women, Abbey was certain that we would be willing to help her reach her goal. By the end of the coat drive, Abbey was able to donate 20 coats, blankets, and gloves to the Light House Shelter. Even with all the hard work that went in to running the drive, Abbey never complained. According to her, the smile on the faces of those that ran the shelter was more than enough to make organizing the drive worth it.
