The 黑料老司机 Food Bank, housed at the Chaplaincy Centre, has been supported all year by individuals, departments, schools, and faculties. Students have donated so others aren't hungry. Thank you!
The shelves are bare as we get to the end of the semester, and the students are still coming. We have approximately 15 regulars, plus folks who need a bit of help "until their next cheque." Some students are feeding families at home, while others are only able to look out for their own needs. Popular items include: spaghetti and sauce, tuna/ham/turkey flakes, rice, peanut butter, snacks - granola bars, pudding/fruit cups. Some have donated toothpaste, and other persona hygiene products, which is also helpful and appreciated.
The food bank will be open throughout April and May, so any help you can offer will be appreciated. And again, thank you!
