UPEI business students collect food for Upper Room Food Bank
| Alumni
In the spirit of giving, business students at the University of Prince Edward Island recently donated over 600 non-perishable food items and $150 to the Upper Room Food Bank.
In mid-November the UPEI Business Society issued a challenge to the undergraduate students in each year, the Master of Business Administration students and the faculty at the School of Business to a competition to collect non-perishable food for the food bank.
From November 16-30, six large boxes-one for each of the four classes, one for MBA students and one for the faculty-were set up in Bill and Marion McDougall Hall, to collect donations. The MBA students won the challenge, collecting about 230 items for the food bank. They also asked the business society to donate $150-the dollar value of their prize-to the food bank.
