UNC accepting donations for TABLE

Posted on February 18, 2010 by Staff

Throughout the month of February, the UNC Visitors’ Center will serve as a contribution drop-off site for TABLE, a nonprofit organization that brings college students and community volunteers together to help feed hungry children in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro area. Participating children receive loaner backpacks on Fridays containing a variety of healthy food for the weekend. Receiving food in backpacks, not grocery bags, allows children a sense of privacy. Empty backpacks are returned on Mondays to school or after-school programs for pick-up by TABLE volunteers.

Those who wish to make donations are asked to bring nutritious, nonperishable food items, such as canned vegetables, juice boxes, breakfast food and snack packs, to the UNC Visitors’ Center.
