Donation to Bloomsburg Food Cupboard — Josh Jenson, Aramark production manager, and John Scheers, Aramark marketing manager.

At the end of each academic year, students of Commonwealth University-Bloomsburg have the option of donating their unused FLEX dollars from their dining accounts so food and household items can be purchased to support the Bloomsburg Food Cupboard. FLEX is money used for purchases at campus dining venues beyond a student’s set number of meals each week.

This year Bloomsburg students donated more than $7,100, allowing ARAMARK, the campus dining service, to purchase items for the Food Cupboard that were delivered on May 30.

Over the last five years, students have donated more than $30,000, which is used to purchase food.
