Support the Santa Fe College AFC Food Drive

April 19, 2021 – The Santa Fe College chapter of the Association of Florida Colleges (AFC) will be holding a food drive Thursday, April 29, from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. at the parking circle by the Santa Fe College Police Department. The college community is invited to participate to help food-insecure people in SF’s service district, and all of the food that is collected will go to SF’s Food Pantry. Preferred items include: canned meats (tuna, chicken), canned fruit and fruit cups (pop tops) and individually wrapped snacks.

Even before the onset of the COVID-19 global pandemic, as many as one out of every five people, and one of every four children in the community did not have reliable access to food. The economic strain brought on by the pandemic has not only continued to impact the most vulnerable in the region, but also those who had never needed to rely on food donations have now found themselves in need.

The SF chapter of AFC thanks the students, faculty and staff in advance for helping those most in need.
