TVs, electronics, food, clothing, household goods and all kinds of other items donated by students moving out of UCF residences will be delivered Wednesday to the Bithlo-Christmas Neighborhood Center for Families to help those in need.<\/p>\n
About 6,900 pounds of donations have been collected for this year\u2019s Student Move Out Recycling Project and sorted for delivery, said Amy Childs, coordinator of Housekeeping & Recycling Services.<\/p>\n
UCF has donated the collected items annually since 2002 to the neighborhood center, which is one of 13 funded by the Orange County Citizens\u2019 Commission for Children.<\/p>\n
The centers made up of nonprofit organizations, government agencies, places of worship, and community groups work together to provide family-friendly accessible services and activities to families in their neighborhoods.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Housekeeping & Recycling team is the logistical force behind the donations but would all be impossible without students contributing to the effort, for which we are grateful that we can find a use for the many items they have donated,\u201d said Brian H. Wormwood, associate director of Facilities Operations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"TVs, electronics, food, clothing, household goods and all kinds of other items donated by students moving out of UCF residences will be delivered Wednesday to the Bithlo-Christmas Neighborhood Center for Families to help those in need.
