Chapel Hill Leads Group Activities
Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina (September 28, 2007)
The Second Annual Chapel Hill Leads Group
and A Southern Season Food Drive to benefit
the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina will be
held on Friday, 28 September from 10:00 a.m. until 9:00 p.m.,
at A Southern Season in University Mall in Chapel Hill.
A Southern Season employees and Chapel
Hill Leads Group volunteers will be staffing the
collection table all day to accept your donations of
Food and Non-Food items. Thank you to everyone, who has
volunteered to staff the table throughout the day. A few open
slots are still available. If you cannot donate the time, a
food / non-food item will gladly be accepted. Spread the word
to your clients during this week. Let them know about the food
drive. Perhaps you might collect items at your business and
bring them to University Mall.
