This week is National Hunger and Homelessness
Awareness week, A&Mparticipates with events
By Beth Brown
THE BATTALION
Each year before Thanksgiving, the National
Coalition for the Homeless and the National Student
Campaign Against Hunger and Homelessness co-spon
sor National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness
Week, which begins today and ends Friday. During the
week, schools, communities and cities take part in a
nationwide effort to bring awareness to the problems of
hunger and homelessness.
This year. Aggies across campus are
helping. Groups such as MSC
Hospitality, MSC Film Society, MSC
Fish, MSC Town Hall, the Volunteer
Services Center and Twin City Mission
are working together to sponsor events
during the week to gather supplies and
raise money for the less fortunate.
Mitchell Kleckley, the campus and
community executive for MSC
Hospitality and a senior biomedical
sciences major, said the purpose of the
week is to “raise awareness for the
problem of local and global hunger
and homelessness, to raise contribu
tions to aid local charities in their daily
efforts to provide relief for those
affected by hunger and homelessness
and to provide the students, faculty
and the general public with solutions - -
and opportunities to get involved.”
Kleckley said there will be a week-long jean drive to
benefit Twin City Mission and an all-week change war
between the three program councils of the M$C bene
fiting Oxfam International, an organization that pro
vides for those without sufficient food, clean water,
shelter or security.
In addition to week-long events, there will be events
in which students can participate each day.
Tara Boyle, a graduate assistant in the Volunteer
Services Center and a graduate student in student affairs
administration in higher education, said she encourages
students to participate in the events.
“The events (they) have planned for the week all
work to dispel the negative myths and labels that sug-
u
I feel that we, those who
are blessed and more for
tunate, have a duty to pro
vide whatever help we can
to see that people don’t
have to go to bed hungry at
night or sleep in the
streets.
— Mitchell Kleckley
senior biomedical sciences major
and campus and community
executive for MSC Hospitality
gest that the homeless are someone else’s problem and
that finding an end to hunger and homelessness is
impossible,” Boyle said.
Events such as the letter-writing campaign and
“Fight Hunger with a Fork” give students a chance to
contribute.
The week ends with “Feed the Hell Outta t.u.”
“Texas A&M and t.u. compete annually to see which
university can collect more canned goods and non-per
ishable donations,” Boyle said.
Boyle said the Volunteer Services Center at A&M and its
counterpart at the University of Texas
will be accepting donations during the
week of Nov. 12.
“There will be an award given to
the student organization that makes
the largest donation to our ‘Feed the
Hell Outta t.u.’ food drive. All of the
donations will go toward beating t.u.
in the competition,” Boyle said.
Ron Crozier, director of communi
ty relations for Twin City Mission,
said the mission will be an active
force during this week and will be
working with student organizations to
raise money and awareness.
“We, Twin City Mission, got
involved in the effort simply by ful
filling our own mission, that is: ‘pro
viding a home for the homeless, being
a friend to the friendless and giving
= hope to the hopeless,” Crozier said.
Crozier said the Twin City Mission would not be as
successful as it is today without A&M students.
V “A lot of our success can be directly attributed to the
relationship we have with the student organizations at
A&M,” Crozier said. “Aggies unselfishly give so much
of their time and resources.”
Kleckley said the Aggies should help as much as pos
sible and that it is the job of A&M students to help the
less fortunate.
“I feel that we, those who are blessed and more for
tunate, have a duty to provide whatever help we can to
see that people don’t have to go to bed hungry at night
or sleep in the streets,” Kleckley said. “There is no rea
son for us to sit back and watch others suffer when we
can make a difference.”
