Score a Goal Against Hunger Food Drive |
|
|
Our newest project is a food drive with the help of the Penguin's Hockey Team and their fans. We collect canned food at one game in the spring which is divided up between the local Salvation Army Food Banks. Money collected through donations and ticket sales is donated to the local soup kitchen. |
