"PRSSA has helped me network with many people and made me confident about my future PR career." -Miranda Logan '18

Executive Board

Every year applications are sent into the PRSSA chapter to be on the Executive board. There are about ten positions on the board.

The Executive board meets once a week, typically on Wednesdays, to plan events throughout the semester.

There are also different bonding activities that take place throughout the year.

Volunteering

Every semester, the Loyola PRSSA executive board volunteers at various organizations in Baltimore.

"Being able to volunteer and help those in Baltimore is great." -Natalie McDonald '18

The board usually participates in the York Road Initiative and the Weinberg Center

This year, the chapter also made peanut butter sandwiches for a local food kitchen.

Fundraisers

This year, the PRSSA chapter had semester long campaigns for Puerto Rico and Horizon Day Camp.

The chapter held various fundraisers throughout both semesters and raised money for these causes.

PRSSA also has various bake sales, book sales, and fundraisers at local Baltimore businesses.

All of the fundraisers do very well and go towards the PRSSA chapter and help with different school campaigns.
