A brief description of the food donation program:

The Food Rescue program, started in 2007, donates approximately 400 meals per week to feed local homeless people. A group of 15 students picks up prepared but unserved food from the dining halls and delivers it to local shelters every night during the school year. In 2009, the program received a $10,000 grant for expenses and to help begin similar programs at other college campuses.
