In previous years, all proceeds of the drive will be given to the student families registered with the UTSU Food Bank. This year, we are modifying the drive and ask that donations be made to organizations throughout Toronto to support our greater community. In such a difficult year, even a small contribution can make a huge difference in the life of someone living in your neighbourhood. We are grateful for your participation in this year’s drive.
