PTC students donate to Pine City Food Shelf

Pine Technical College Student Senate leaders packed up 1,000 pounds of non-perishable food items collected from students, staff, faculty and community-minded citizens and delivered it to the Pine City Food Shelf today, bringing the 2009 food drive to a close.

Student senate officers initiated the food drive in Oct. 2009, and food items have been stocked in the Student Senate Office since then.

"This is the biggest food drive we've ever held," said Amanda Spencer, PTC Student Senate Vice President. "The Pine Technical College community is happy give to the local food shelf that will help those who are less fortunate, especially during the holidays," Spencer added.
