The Broadcasting Club at Lake Land College recently collected nearly 1200 pounds of food and donated it to local charities.

According to Greg Powers, broadcasting instructor, about half of the food collected was donated to Pathways, an alternative education program at the college. The other half of the collection was donated to the Mattoon Community Food Center.   

The food drive is a month-long event put on every year by the club.
