The last free drive-through Food for Thought food distribution for the fall semester on Nov. 17 at 51¶ÌÊÓƵ drew 79 cars to the Charlie Thomas Family Applied Technology Center.
Food for Thought is a partnership between 51¶ÌÊÓƵ, the Galveston County Food Bank and the Houston Food Bank through its Food for Change food scholarship initiative.
Over the course of the semester, the program served hundreds of 51¶ÌÊÓƵ students and their families by providing them with access to fresh produce, meats and other groceries on the 51¶ÌÊÓƵ campus, enabling them to save money for other necessities and to maintain their focus on school. All currently enrolled Galveston College students are eligible to participate.
A very special thanks to the volunteers from the , 51¶ÌÊÓƵ faculty, staff and students, and friends of the college who assisted in distributing the food this semester.
