451 Centennial Cans of Food

During spring break, the staff of Student Financial Services issued a Centennial Challenge to the departments housed in Elliot Center: Celebrate KSC’s centennial with a donation of 100 cans of food to the Community Kitchen.

The Advancement, Elliot Center, and Information Technology departments joined the friendly competition ¬with great spirit: On the last day, with 20 minutes to the deadline, an IT staffer rushed out to purchase cans to push the department’s tally to the top. When the final count was made, however, SFS staffers held the lead with 209 donated cans. The participants piled 451 cans into the pick-up truck that delivered the food to the Community Kitchen.
