UNICEF fund drive a success

     UNICEF, the United Nations Children's Fund, received a
donation of $3,747.22, thanks to a student-organized drive, with
cooperation from Dining Services, held Oct. 11 and 12.
     Organized by senior Anna White, 20 volunteers asked students
in Kent, Russell, Rodney and Pencader dining halls to donate
meals or points to the cause. Based on these donations, Dining
Services contributed a percentage of the price of the meal or
points to UNICEF. Celebrating its 50th anniversary, UNICEF works
in 138 nations, providing long-term assistance to children in
developing countries in such areas as health care, education,
clean water supply and sanitation, nutrition and training.
