August 2020 - On The Move

Volunteers make it possible for
UNT Dallas, NTFB to bring relief
with needed mobile food pantry
Community connectedness is one of our values as a university, and we don't take it
lightly. We pride ourselves on being able to serve our neighbors, and especially in a
time of great need. Our volunteer effort at the July 28 North Texas Food Bank campus
event speaks volumes about our commitment. We've held numerous NTFB events on
campus with the support of the Texas National Guard. That was not the case for the
July event. We had 25 UNT Dallas volunteers on campus at 7 a.m. to get the job done.
That meant leaving the safety of their own homes, putting on a face covering and
helping those in our community who need it most. Thank you to Eronia King for
leading this effort, and to all of our volunteers.
