Straight Street Orlando Volunteer Event was a sucess!


Thank you to all those that came out to NMSA’s first volunteer event with Straight Street Orlando on Tuesday night.  We served over 250 homeless men and women in downtown Orlando Pizza Hut personal pizzas, breadsticks, drinks and salad.  All the Salad was provided by NMSA members that made donations.  Special thanks to: Lorena Cabrices, Jessica Delgatto, Megan Kizzort, Candice Stribling, Misty Lupinacci, Graziella Russo, and Carole Becker for your donations toward providing salads—our over 50lbs of lettuce and over 2 gallons of ranch dressing was a hit! We have been invited to come back anytime throughout this semester and although our only other official date with Straight Street Orlando is on November 1st if you would like to go out on any Tuesday before then please contact carole.becker@knights.ucf.edu. Attached are photos of the event as well as the website and facebook for the organization that we served! Thanks again to all those who came out and truly made a difference in these amazing people’s lives!
