At Smurthwaite, we value community service… and, of course, some friendly competition. For our philanthropy event for the semester, we participated in the canned food drive put on by the Hispanic American Leadership Organization. All donations were given to Cats’ Cupboard.
To give members an extra incentive, we made this a floor competition. the top floor, main floor and basement all competed to see who could collect the most items per person.
The winner of the floor competition was the basement with 23 items per person. As a house, we collected a total of 457 items to donate to Cats’ Cupboard.
