We explore three innovative projects sponsored by Quinnipiac University faculty and staff. First, we go to the Hamden Public Library where journalism professor Amy Walker and her students have created a “story booth” to listen to community members’ thoughts about hunger. Then, we hear from sociology professor Sue Hudd, who takes fresh produce, and her students, to a food pantry each week. Finally, we hear from QU’s director of community service, Vincent Contrucci, about why he asks students to “be kind,” and leave their food behind every May. We also hear from students who took part in these projects, and the Keefe Center’s Adam Sendroff and Y’Isiah Lopes.
