Fill the Food Box at The Wesley Center
fcCollege small group is combating student hunger! As a part of their Social Principles study, fcCollege students will be collecting healthy, shelf stable foods through February to "Fill the Food Box!" located at the Wesley Center on UTC Campus. They have highlighted that college students lack access to more healthy foods like fruits and vegetables, and would love your help in filling that need. You are welcome to drop off donations at the Welcome Center or with Kirsten Shipp, fcCollege Director, during the month of February! Thank you for supporting students!
