This year, the N.C. School of Science and Mathematics is hosting its 2nd Annual NCSSM Food Drive. Voluntunteers and donations are encouraged for this event that plans to break the record of poundage of food raised by a non-charitable organization in only 24 hours.
If spring break plans get in the way of going to NCSSM on March 5 to volunteer, you can contribute without leaving UNC by coming to the Pit tonight. Alumni of the residential high school are gathering for a “Happy Half,” a thirty-minute event that begins at 10:00 on NCSSM grounds every Sunday through Thursday.
It’s a great way to start clearing your room of nutritional reserves (you can bring other foodstuffs besides cans) before you leave for break (for me, these are the cups of pineapple I no longer have cravings for).
This is a great cause – all proceeds go to Food Bank of Central & Eastern NC.
