Holiday Food Drive underway
The annual Holiday Food Drive is a long-standing tradition on campus that has helped hundreds of Â鶹´«Ã½ University and Durham College students and their families enjoy a happier holiday season. It also gives our campus community an opportunity to come together for a great cause. Last year’s campaign assisted more than 100 students and their families.
How can you help?
The success of the drive would not be possible without the kindness of volunteers. Whether you give your time, participate in fundraising activities or donate a non-perishable food item, you can help our students in many ways.
A number of great events will take place throughout November and December, with details posted in Weekly Report or the website as they become available.
