UCT doesn’t just talk about helping communities and giving back – we put our money where our mouths are…by supporting the Mid-Ohio Foodbank Operation Feed campaign.
OPERATION FEED is a community-wide food and funds drive coordinated by Mid-Ohio Foodbank.
o Each year, Mid-Ohio Foodbank joins forces with local businesses, schools, civic groups, and individuals to raise critically needed donations in this community-wide campaign effort.
o Operation Feed stocks the shelves of hundreds of food pantries, soup kitchens and emergency shelters in central & eastern Ohio.
o Each one of these agencies depends on Operation Feed to help provide nutritious, filling food for the people they serve.
o 100% of each dollar raised through Operation Feed is used to provide food for central & eastern Ohio residents in need.
o For every $1 donated, Mid-Ohio Foodbank is able to provide 3 meals to its partner agencies.
o Operation Feed raised over 6 million meals in 2011. The goal for 2012 is 7.5 million meals.
