The Danforth Staff Council’s Community Engagement Committee once again arranged a successful food drive for a local non-for-profit. This year, nearly 400 cans of food and toiletry items were collected for Operation Food Search (OFS), which amounted to a total of 250 pounds of non-perishable food items being collected.
Additionally, OFS received $175 in online donations. OFS values these donations at almost $600 as they represent enough to help provide quality nutrition to over 200 people for one day.
Thank you for all your help and donations that is sure to make a tremendous difference in the St. Louis community.
