Center receives national award for food drive

The University of Kansas' Center for Community Outreach has won a national Make a Difference Day award for outstanding local project.
The center won the award for a canned food drive held October 25, the seventh annual Make a Difference Day, and collected about 6,200 items for five food banks in Lawrence. More than 400 projects nationwide were given the award, announced in yesterday's USA Weekend.
Jamie Najim, center co-director, said the group did not think that they would win because this was the first year they had participated in Make a Difference Day.
"We would have been successful even if we hadn't won the award because people were fed," Najim said.
The center beat five other Lawrence groups, including Sigma Nu fraternity and East Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Corporation, to receive a certificate and $2,000 to donate to charity.
Najim said that the center did not know yet if it could donate the money to more than one organization.
"If we can, we'll divide the money among the five organizations," Najim said. "If not, we'll donate the money to the Emergency Services Council which deals with all five pantries so either way the money will help those groups."
The food collected on Make a Difference Day was donated to the Ballard Center, Pelathe Community Resource Center, East Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Corporation, Penn House and the Salvation Army, Naiim said.
David Cade, executive director of the Pelathé Community Resource Center, said the food drive helped his organization.
"It raised community awareness about the food shortage," Cade said. "The food donated by CCO and other groups allowed us to make it through what we had anticipated to be a very hard winter."
