Campaign "Paper for Food"
Our role was essential in the fight against hunger!
Between days 25th and 30th May, we have made the transport of paper for the Food Bank Warehouse. The Faculty to Help Team is proud of the results from another successful campaign to which all members joined in their workspaces, as well as the Directorship of School!
We are grateful to the company Electrotejo who gave us invaluable support in transporting about 6000 lbs of paper delivered, which will be converted at a rate of 100 euros per tonne in food products that enter the distribution chain supportive of Food Banks.
