- To support those in our Nashville community struggling with hunger, the Service Learning Board will be collecting peanut butter, canned meat (chicken or tuna), canned vegetables, canned fruit, pasta and cereal. Beginning Tuesday, October 17, through Monday, October 30, bring in any of the suggested items to help those in need. Collection bins will be located in the Rotunda. Open your pantry door and grab just one can to make a difference. Together, we CAN solve hunger!
