Fall Pet Food Drive at Early College Campus
T he Early College Campus Student Council is hosJng a
Fall Pet Food Drive from November 1 to November
st
17 . The purpose of this drive is to gather as much pet
th
food as possible to give to homeless pets in our area. Dry food
for dogs, cats and rabbits is being collected and will be dis-
tributed by our very own Student Council to the Yaqui Animal
Rescue Shelter. Canned pet food cannot be accepted; food must
be “dry” pet food in bags. In addiJon to food, monetary dona-
Jons can be made. All donaJons can be dropped off at ECC at
Mrs. Fernandez’s room (Room 400) or given to any student
council member. We’ve all seen a homeless pet in need of ECC 2021-2022 Student Council: (leb to right)

ECC Student Council Holds a Toy Donation Drive
In the spirit of giving, the Early College Campus
Student Council is holding a toy donation drive.
This is a generous endeavor that the student coun-
cil takes part in every year. From November 29
th
through December 15 , you can donate a new, un-
th
wrapped toy for children ages 1 through 12. Stu-
dent Council members will gather all the toy dona-
tions and deliver them to Driscoll Children’s Hospi-
tal where they will be distributed among the chil-
dren there in hopes of, as Carlos Cervantes, Stu-
dent Council President, states, “…making the chil-
dren’s holiday season a little merrier.” Drop off your
donations in Room 400 or contact any member of
the ECC Student Council to learn more on how you
can be a part of this toy drive and how you can help
bring a much-needed smile to a child’s face.
