Once again the FMUL, through a group of organised volunteers, gave some of its weekend time on the 29th and 30th of May to help collect food for the Food Bank Against Hunger. This took place in the Minipreço Supermarket in Lisbon and allowed us to collect 1,325 kilos of food products.
"I give thanks to all those who are volunteers at the Food Bank and help in its campaigns, because without the volunteers the campaigns would not be possible. And for all those who are not volunteers I leave this plea for them to participate in a Food Bank campaign, because they are all necessary, all welcome. In participating in a Food Bank campaign people realise that their time can be important in someone else’s lives" (Isabel Jonet intreview – President of the Portuguese Federation of Food Banks , 2nd de November de 2009, Newsletter)
In the name of the FMUL team, once again our great thanks!
