Posted 9:31 AM, January 21, 2009, by jaruiz
Food drive organizer Linn Dee Barrientos, business systems analyst, congratulates everyone who participated in our 2008 Holiday Food and Fund Drive to support Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties! Through the generosity of our Department as well as our encouragement of our supporting ancillary services, we donated a total of 479 pounds as well as $390.00 to the Second Harvest Food Bank. For our efforts, we earned a bronze award, which Ms. Barrientos will be accepting on behalf of our Department at the Second Harvest's "Award and Recognition Event" on Thursday, February 12, 2009, at the Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts (500 Castro Street in Mountain View). There is complimentary parking in the garage under the Center, which can be accessed from Mercy Street. Some street parking is also available. A cocktail reception and hors d'oeuvres will begin at 5:30 PM; the awards ceremony starts at 6:30 PM. For more information, please access http://www.secondharvestfood.org/aboutus/events_2008awards.php.
Ms. Barrientos would like to thank everyone for their generosity: "Our efforts this past holiday season have made a tremendous impact on our community as well as on our camaraderie with each other. Give yourself a round of applause! Because of our ability to motivate ourselves and others, I am very honored to represent Stanford Radiology at the awards banquet on February 12th at the Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts!"
