Hobart and William Smith students Wednesday made over 1,000 turkey and cheese sandwiches for the hungry in Syracuse.

The sandwiches will be donated to the Samaritan Center for their work to make sure no one goes hungry.

From their website-

Samaritan Center is a nonprofit 501c3, interfaith effort of community members committed to serving the hungry and those in need in order to promote their welfare dignity and self-sufficiency. 

It is rooted in the belief that sound nutrition is the first step in enabling people to cope and become productive, self-sufficient members of society.

For over 41 years, Samaritan Center has worked to fight hunger in the greater Syracuse community by providing nutritious hot meals to anyone in need 7 days a week – no questions asked. Paired with these meals is the case management support and access to services that help our guests move on to a more positive future.

Last year Hobart and William Smith students made 1,000 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the Samaritan Center.
