Leonardtown Sociology, Psychology Students Step Up to Fight Hunger
Sociology and psychology students in Professor Michael Maloneys classes on the College of Southern Marylands Leonardtown Campus donated 2,159 pounds of food for the Southern Maryland Food Bankenough to feed 122 families this month. Organized by Connie Churchward of California and Robin Lamphier of Hollywood, the effort not only helped the community, but it also created a venue for students to get involved in a good cause. It has shown me just how giving each and every student is, said Lampier, and that when we all pull together, we can accomplish great things.
Our goal was to feed as many people in the county as possible, said Churchward. No one should have to go hungry.

The food will go to a central location to be given to those in need from Calvert, Charles and St. Marys counties.
