JOAN F. LORENZ – CHAIR
WORDS FROM THE CHAIR
FOOD
Do you know the right to food is a human right derived from the
International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights,
recognizing the “right to an adequate standard of living, including
adequate food”, as well as the “fundamental right to be free from
hunger”. However, so many people go hungry. Our nation needs to reach
out to those that are in need for adequate food, and continue to develop
nutritious foods for those that are in need a chance to live a longer
life.
On May 4, 2010, we had our Annual Student Recognition Night at
the Gloucester County College. We had the privilege of having Marianne
Gillette President of National IFT speak at our meeting. The following
students were picked for this year’s scholarship:
Jamie Shipe – Delaware Valley College
Carly Bombolevicz – Delaware Valley College
Marjorie Austerc – Drexel University
We also rewarded six students who were in the Science fair, three
through
9th – 12th grade and three from 6th through 8th grade.
We hope all these students will be help bring nutritious food to our
table.
