Subject: Foodbank Recap

Penn Staters always love to get together for a good time, especially when there is a chance to contribute to a good cause. The Community Food Bank at Hillside, NJ offers just such an opportunity. On Saturday 13 PSU North Jersey alumni chapter members, friends and family members got together at the Food Bank for the latest iteration of this semi-annual event. This time we were assigned to the Pasta Room, where, along with many other groups, we tasked with taking elbow pasta from very large boxes and filling as many small plastic bags as possible. The Food Bank staff were very impressed with the teamwork and efficiency displayed by all the groups. Our efforts resulted in a grand total of 4,813 bags of pasta prepared and ready for delivery to shelters, soup kitchens and other similar facilities throughout New Jersey. Congratulations to our hardy band of Penn State volunteers who worked so hard to help those suffering from food insecurity!

Group Photo Volunteers (L to R):
Front Row: Angelo DeCarlo, Lynn DeCarlo, Sarah DeCarlo, Victoria Zuccaro, Andy Deitch
Back Row: Allie Schiller, Justin Schiller, Colin Wazeter, Adam Wazeter, Julia Zaccaro, James Britt, Mary Walsh, Harrison James
