MGCCC hosting food drive for animal shelter
MGCCC Perkinston Campus Faculty Association is sponsoring a food drive for Stone County SPCA.
Boxes are located throughout the campus for anyone to drop off donations. To ensure the animals get the healthiest food, the faculty association is asking for the Purina brand or better.
Items being taken up for donations include bagged or canned unopened or unexpired food. History Professor/ Member of Faculty Association Jason Shows said, “They may not get the funding or so forth that some other groups get or donations or things like that. So, we definitely try to help out whoever we can. We have great groups already on campus that are doing food drives representing a lot of different causes. So, we figured we would take this cause, helping out pets, and doing what we can to represent Gulf Coast in a positive way and also the community.”
Donations are being accepted through March 18th. Members of the faculty association will personally deliver the food to the shelter.
