To some people, "throwing in the towel" might mean giving up, but to Jazna Stannard it's a rally cry in her fight to help those who are homeless. As a high school freshman, she led a drive to gather soap, towels and other toiletries for her local homeless shelter. Six years later, the Soap & Towel Campaign is now a nationwide effort that benefits the homeless population in more than 30 states.
Stannard, a junior in public relations, is one of five Purdue students featured in the latest installment of "5 Students Who Move the World Forward."
