We also raise awareness about hunger in Canada through household flyers, educational materials, and online resources.
Suggested items include: pasta products/pasta sauce, rice, canned meats and fish, peanut butter, cereal, canned vegetables, dry and canned soups, fruit juices, canned/powdered milk, baby food, diapers, and beans and legumes.
69传媒students, staff, and faculty can drop off any food donations to the Residence Office, Bernadine Hall, 340 (first floor). The office is open from 9:00 am-8:00 pm. All proceeds will support UPEI鈥檚 Food Bank.
