Join in the United Way's SOUPer Day of Caring Campaign. Help re-supply local food banks that sent food and personal care products to the areas affected by Hurricane Katrina.
Local food banks have sent much of the local supply to the Gulf area. In order to restock and be able to assist locals in need, and also send more to the hurricane area, we are asking the Ithaca College community to participate in the SOUPer Day of Caring.
Bring your donations to the bins in the Campus Center lobby from Monday, September 12, through Wednesday, September 15. Items will be delivered to the Stewart Park pavilion on the morning of September 15 at a United Way community celebration.
