COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT FROM The American College of Greece

Campus Challenge | Food Drive

WHAT

Thank you ACG for showing you care!

The response to The American College of Greece ACG Cares Food Drive has been so successful that we are extending into the spring semester in an effort to help the growing demand in Athens for basic food items for those most affected by economic challenges. All items collected will be delivered to local food banks and we encourage the entire ACG community to join this important community service efffort.

We are also asking for donations of any gently-used coats and warm winter clothes. The collection bins will be able to accomodate both food and clothing items.
