The students of Kristy McDonald’s Professional Communications class are hosting the fourth annual Food for Thought non-perishable food and hygiene drive. We want to invite you and team to a little fun and friendly competition. With the increased need of supplies for our local community, NMC’s Food for Thought has partnered with the Northwest Michigan Food Coalition to raise donations to help feed and provide hygiene products to over 4,000 people this holiday season.

The students have created a challenge for the faculty/staff/students to make donating even more exciting!

How the challenge works:

  • A box will be dropped off to each department on November 9 and picked up November 16
  • Fill the box with donations – non-perishable food and hygiene items
  • The department that collects the most items will win a pizza party for up to 60 people

This challenge is a way for the faculty, staff and students to support a NMC student project and give back to our community at the same time. Please like NMC’s Food for Thought’s Facebook page for information and updates on the latest events: facebook.com/ NMCFoodForThought/.

If you are unable to donate during the challenge, there are red donation bins in the Osterlin Library, Parsons-Stulen and Health & Science buildings. You can also make monetary donations through the Facebook page. Thank you for helping collect food to fill the pantries in our local community. Let the games begin!
