On Sunday, Oct 15, UConn Hartford students held an item drive to benefit My Sister's Place, a shelter in Hartford. The students asked customers of the Stop 'n' Shop in Newington if they would donate things like paper towels, soap and detergents, diapers, garbage bags, and grocery store gift cards. Four hours of work in front of the store yielded $171 in cash and gift cards and close to 200 items donated!
