CVCC CAN
Lynchburg, VA /Media Release/11/7/11 - Central Virginia Community College collected canned goods throughout October during “CVCC CAN,” an event sponsored by the CVCC Alumni Association, Student Government, and Classified and Part-time Staff. Because of the success of the drive, 627 pounds of food collected at the CVCC Main Campus were packaged and donated to the Timberlake Area Food Pantry located at Covenant Presbyterian Church. The CVCC Appomattox Center gathered 35 pounds of food and it is being donated to the New Hope Baptist Church Food Pantry in Appomattox. These pantries serve those at risk of going hungry due to lack of money, job loss, illness or other difficult circumstances. The CVCC college community plans to continue to support other local food pantries and banks each year through “CVCC CAN.”
