A brief description of the food donation program:
UNLV Dining has partnered with DASH (Delivering and Serving Hope) to develop a program which encourages student outreach to donate leftover and surplus food to those in need.
Homelessness is a growing problem in the Las Vegas community. The DASH program (Delivering and Serving Hope) was created to bridge the gap between college students and the homeless population. By participating, students provide a meal or two for a homeless individual who may only have that meal for the day.
Through personally delivering the lunches to the Salvation Army Day Shelter in North Las Vegas, it is the program’s goal to help college students learn more about the problem of hunger and homelessness. We also hope to communicate to the homeless population that they have not been forgotten nor ignored and that we care about their plight.
