Reminder-Guelph Community Food Drive, the Student FoodBank

As you have hopefully noticed, paper bags advertising the Guelph Community Food Drive have been circulating around campus. I wanted to provide you with a friendly reminder that we will be collecting donations until the afternoon of Monday, June 16th. All donations we collect will directly go to help stock the Student FoodBank on campus. Donations can be dropped off at the donation bin inside the UC, at the FoodBank, or we can even arrange to pick them up. Attached is a flyer advertising the Food Drive and outlining suggested items for donation.
