Last week CCH hosted a food packaging event on campus. Through Youthfront's Something To Eat program each student had the opportunity to pay $1.20 and assemble one package of food which would provide six meals. We had a tent set up Monday through Thursday for students to stop by.
Many of our students were able to give a presentation about Something To Eat in their classrooms and invited classmates to the tent afterwards. Several people came with the change they found in their purse or car. We had organizations come together as a group and assemble meals.
Our students did a fantastic job preparing for and running the event. By the end of the week we assembled more that 5,000 packages! That will feed more than 30,000 people!
