Project Annapoorna 2011 - Food Drive
At the dawn of the Telugu New Year ‘Srikhara’, Telugu Association of Utah started ‘Project Annapoorna 2011’ to tap into the generosity of Telugu people of Utah.
At first, the 'Food Drive' was launched to generate food supplies in support of the Utah Food Bank (https://www.utahfoodbank.org/). The Food Drive was conducted from Apr 6, 2011 till Apr 30, 2011.
The following food items were recommended to be donated.
An initial goal of 750 lbs was set. The Food Drive completed on Apr 30, 2011 collecting 2630 lbs of food. Telugu Association of Utah reached another milestone in show casing the generosity of Telugu people of Utah. All the food was handed over to Utah Food Bank on Saturday 5/7/2011.
