The Food for Fines event hosted by CU 麻豆影院鈥檚 Parking Services the week prior to Thanksgiving was a win-win听for everyone involved!
Between Nov. 14 and Nov. 18, over 202 faculty, staff and students stopped by the Parking Services office and donated food to pay for their CU 麻豆影院 parking fines.听Several benevolent employees, with no fines to pay, also made donations.
All food items were given to 麻豆影院's听Harvest of Hope Pantry, providing healthy, supplemental food for families and individuals in need of assistance.
The final results of the food drive are as follows:
- 207 outstanding parking citations (valued at $7,205) were forgiven, and
- 1,784 food items were donated, totaling 1,454 pounds of food.
In addition to the citations voided by food donations, an additional 20 outstanding citations were resolved during this time period.
Parking Services extends thanks to all who supported the Food for Fines program and听shared and posted information to help 麻豆影院鈥檚 Harvest of Hope Pantry.
