Support the ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø AFC Food Drive
April 23, 2021
The ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø chapter of the Association of Florida Colleges (AFC) will be
holding a food drive Thursday, April 29, from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. at the parking
circle by the ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø Police Department. The college community is invited
to participate to help food-insecure people in SF's service district, and all of the
food that is collected will go to SF's Food Pantry. Preferred items include: canned
meats (tuna, chicken), canned fruit and fruit cups (pop tops) and individually wrapped
snacks.
Even before the onset of the COVID-19 global pandemic, as many as one out of every
five people, and one of every four children in the community did not have reliable
access to food. The economic strain brought on by the pandemic has not only continued
to impact the most vulnerable in the region, but also those who had never needed to
rely on food donations have now found themselves in need.
The SF chapter of AFC thanks the students, faculty and staff in advance for helping those most in need.
