Student Nurse Organization
Holding Annual Food Drive

The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford Student Nurse Organization is collecting nonperishable food to distribute to less fortunate families in McKean County for Thanksgiving.

The SNO is collecting nonperishable food through Nov. 20 at several sites on campus: Frame-Westerberg Commons, campus police, Hanley Library, Fisher Hall, Swarts Hall, Blaisdell Hall and the Sport and Fitness Center.

In addition, those attending Panther sporting events in the Sport and Fitness Center can get $1 off their ticket price by bringing a nonperishable food item to the event.

The organization will deliver donations to food banks within the community before Thanksgiving.

“As nurses, we are giving great service to those in the community by promoting health and wellness,” said SNO president Angelica West, a nursing major from Brackney. “As another service to the community, we can help those in need during the approaching holiday season.”

Mary Boser, SNO advisor and assistant professor of nursing, said, “This is not meant to be a Thanksgiving meal, but rather a supplement to offset increased family needs during the holiday season. This annual event has been very successful in the past due to the generosity of students, faculty, staff and our local community.”
