On Saturday, April 12, the Student Leadership Council (SLC) at Ogeechee Technical College sponsored the Statesboro Soup Kitchen at the First United Methodist Church in Statesboro.

Volunteers from SLC, Nursing, Health Information Management Technology, National Technical Honors Society, Cybersecurity, and the Out to Conquer gaming club served 134 hot meals of chicken and dumplings, mixed vegetables, and garlic toast, along with 180 to go meals of peanut better and jelly sandwiches.

“It’s always a pleasure to represent OTC in the community and support such a meaningful cause,” said Beckie Snyder, Administrative Assistant for VPSA. 

This was the second Saturday of the year that the SLC has sponsored the Soup Kitchen, with more to come. The Soup Kitchen is open from 11:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. every Saturday for service. 

Ogeechee on the Go is the name of Ogeechee Technical College’s community service initiative. OTC students and employees routinely participate in projects designed to support worthwhile causes within the community.
