Michael Scharf of Center Valley helps Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine's clean-up efforts

2017 Mar 27

Michael Scharf of Center Valley and several other Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine master of biomedical sciences students took part in the Great American Cleanup on March 25, beautifying three miles of roadway surrounding the Doylestown campus. The Great American Cleanup is a nationwide event during which community members volunteer their time to clean up public areas like roadsides, streams, beaches, parks and forests. More than 75 bags of debris were collected and the area was left in a considerably better shape than when the students found it. Geisinger Commonwealth MBS student, Nicholas Maffetone coordinated the event with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation and with Guy Sheets, vice president and director of client services, AMO Environmental Decisions in Danboro, a company that helps its clients make informed and responsible environmental decisions.
