Information Technology’s Digital Corps has been working with the Muncie Afghan Refugee Resettlement Committee (MARRC) to help welcome to Muncie many of the thousands of refugees from Afghanistan who were housed at Camp Atterbury\u2014a military training base near Edinburgh, Indiana\u2014earlier this Fall. Many of the refugees arrived with only the clothes on their backs. Some need help with their children and elderly relatives, while others were forced to leave family behind in Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

The Digital Corps was asked to create a website to build awareness and raise funds in support of MARRC\u2019s initiative<\/a>. Created in a one-day \u201chackathon\u201d-style session, student members of the Digital Corps created the site layout and design, wrote content, and coded the final pages. The final website is anticipated to go live this week.<\/p>\n

Several students at Digital Corps were interviewed last week by the Indianapolis-based WRTV news about their experiences working on this project.\u00a0The WRTV interview aired on Nov. 2, 2021, at 6 pm.
