STC Students Feed South Dakota

As part of Southeast Technical College’s Service to Community (STC) Days, more than 70 employees and students stopped by Feeding South Dakota’s Sioux Falls location and assisted with boxing food, sorting food, packing backpacks, counting out turkeys and breaking down and sealing boxes.

The mission of Feeding South Dakota is to eliminate hunger in South Dakota. Each week, the organization assists in providing temporary food assistance to approximately 21,000 hungry individuals and families in South Dakota and the Backpack Program gives food every weekend to over 4,500 kids who otherwise might go hungry.

STC’s volunteers included students from the Business and Early Childhood departments, as well as psychology students and employees from various offices on campus. In all, nearly 114 service hours were served at Feeding South Dakota.
