Letter: Social Work Club exceeds goal of collecting 500 canned goods
Icon viewers:
Bluffton University's Social Work Club would like to extend a gracious thank you for all who were involved in our Trick-or-Canning event.
This was an extremely successful event and we were able to exceed our goal of 500 items for the West Ohio Food Bank. We even received more nonperishable goods after our deadline!
These items will be donated to Bluffton University Nutrition Association's (BUNA) CUP dinner that is occurring next Friday, November 18th, from 5-7 at First Mennonite Church, which will in turn be donated to local CUP food pantries.
Thank you again for the community's great help. Many families in the area will be able to have a warm, nutritional, Thanksgiving meal thanks to you!"
Tasha Fleming
President of Social Work Club
