The Pasco-Hernando State College (PHSC) Chapter of the Association of Florida Colleges (AFC) collected small to medium size brand-new stuffed animals throughout April to donate to first responders in Pasco and Hernando counties. PHSC employees and community members contributed 285 brand-new stuffed animals that were distributed and delivered to the Pasco and Hernando Sheriff’s offices. First responders use the donated stuffed animals to give to children in crisis situations to help them calm down.
