VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE!!! FOOD DRIVE
I know I usually write about restaurants and what their food tastes like, but today I want to touch on a different note. In my strategies class, we were assigned a group project: to put together a charity event for a non-profit organization here in Stillwater. My group chose to work with Action Inc. Action Inc. is an organization that helps people in need. They have a emergency crisis center that gives out food every 90 days and they also give money to keep utilities from getting shut off. They help people who are barely scraping by and sometimes need that little extra. They help single-parent families; women coming out of domestic violence situations and many others who are struggling to get by.
We are having a food drive; we are making it into a competition between the Greek houses and the residential halls. I encourage all of you who can to donate. If you are not in a house or if you live off of campus, we would still love you to donate. You can bring me your donation or I can pick your donation up if you don’t want to bring canned goods to school.
I know many of you are seniors and will be graduating and moving away in the beginning of May and others will be heading home for the summer. I am sure many of you have canned goods or other unused non-perishable items in your cabinets (they probably have been there all year) that will be one more box you will have to pack, load, haul off then unload and unpack. We would like to take these items off your hands. We are having the food drive the week of April 10th-April 14th. You can donate anytime before that or any time that week. I know many of you are broke college students as I am, but I also bet you all have a little extra to spare.
Even if you don’t donate because you’re really not sure what you are going to eat between now and the beginning of May, I still encourage you to donate your extra food to Action Inc. when the time comes.
Thanks for taking the time to read this!
