Dear Penn Community,
Thank you so very much for your continued generosity. As a result, the Penn community has a huge impact during the holiday season on our surrounding community. We look forward to working with you again this year as we strive to make a difference in the lives of our many deserving neighbors. Below is a list of current opportunities including the Holiday Food Drive, designed to bring joy during the holidays.
—Isabel Sampson-Mapp, Associate Director, Netter Center for Community Partnerships
Holiday Food Drive: November 4-20
Let’s Take a Bite out of Hunger! In the season of Thanks and Giving, please contribute to the Annual Food Drive at the University coordinated by Penn VIPS. We are collecting non-perishable foods (cans and boxed foods) as well as turkeys. Donations will re-stock the pantry at Baring House and the People’s Emergency Shelter as well as help many deserving families in the area. Please take donated items to one of our conveniently located drop sites listed below:
