To give back to the community, GMSA will be having a food drive during the week of Halloween. GMSA members will go door-to-door a week prior to Halloween night setting brown bags by residents' doors, asking the residents to fill the bags with nonperishable food items to be collected Halloween night. All items collected will go towards La Casa Guadalupana (House of Hospitality). Anyone wishing to donate may contact Boonmee Yang (byang1@stthomas.edu) or GMSA at gmsa.stthomas@gmail.com
