SON Collects 584 pounds of food for N.C. Food Bank

The School of Nursing organized its third annual food drive to support the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina. All total, the School collected 584 pounds of food – an amount which will result in 491 meals.

This year, the students competed against the faculty and staff to see which group would collect the most pounds of food. The students defeated the faculty and staff with an estimated 310 pounds of donations. The faculty and staff collected approximately 274 pounds.

In 2008, the SON donated more than 500 pounds of food to the food bank. Thank you to all the faculty, staff and students who donated this year.
