"HAVE A HEART" FOOD AND FUND DRIVE

Communication Department Student Group Launches "Have A Heart" Food and Fund Drive Benefiting Community Food Bank

Each year the period right after the Holidays is a difficult time for the Community Food Bank. Food supplies are always low, but the current economy makes the situation worse than ever. As you may know, the Community Food Bank not only supports Fresno but also outlying areas in the San Joaquin Valley that might be in need.

The "Have a Heart" food and fund drive was launched last February near Valentines Day. When the Fresno State community learned that every dollar donated allowed the Food bank to purchase $8 in food, they generously donated. Last year the campus donated over $1,200, allowing the Community Food bank the power to purchase almost $10,000 worth of food for needy families throughout Central California

This year's "Have a Heart" drive will take place from Tuesday, Feb. 17- Friday, Feb.20. Students from the Professional Communication Association will be taking donations in the Free Speech area those 4 days between 11:30 and 1:00. Every donation will make a huge difference!

If you prefer to write a check, please make it out to the Community Food Bank and send it to the Communication Department, Attention Craig Fowler - PCA. If you have questions, please contact Craig Fowler at crfowler@csufresno.edu or Evan Halstead at evan.halstead@gmail.com
