The Kappa Alpha Sorority collected food as part of a national platform, Feeding the Hungry, when 12 members met Monday at Community National Bank. Members collected non-perishable food items and plan to deliver them to the Iola Community Pantry. The effort is part of the national presidents platform to help with hunger issues.
Members also heard reports that five gas cards had been given to cancer patients. The group plans a Founders Day event March 9 at the Community Building in Riverside Park.
