As we celebrate Thanksgiving, here are some quotes with thanks from faculty and directors regarding the Casady Cans Do Food Drive and the UD students contribution as role models of fighting hunger, feeding hope in Oklahoma City.
Our theme in Lower Division is “We Can Make a Difference.” Our students are proud to make a difference in our community and to be able to support our local Food Bank by collecting food during the food drive and volunteering at the Food Bank throughout the year. The UD volunteers have been wonderful. They have been fun and engaging with the students. Today Tripp, Davis and Clark were great. Tripp made a wonderful dancing can in the middle of carpool circle. Thank them for me. Mrs. France, LD
The Middle Division students were excited and proud that they reached their goal of collecting 2,500 cans for the Food Bank and the people of Oklahoma. The participation and help of the upper division students throughout the Food Drive made a big impression on our students. They are great role models. Mrs. May, MD
It was heartwarming to see students of all ages working collaboratively to help our Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma fight hunger and feed hope! Thank you YAC and STUCO leaders for making this project a reality in our campus. My favorite moment of the drive was the amazing can dance performed by Tripp to cheer and remind Lower Division students to bring donations! Mrs. Clay, UD
