My work held a food drive this year in hopes of rasing over 500 food items. To make the food drive more competitive, four teams were created; U of U, BYU, USU, and "other" schools.
The two week competition got REALLY competitive and donation boxes were even "vandalized." The "other" schools were in the lead for the entire two weeks but come the final day, U of U was only 10 points behind. I and a fellow coworker decided to round up some money from our fellow U of U team members and make a run to Walmart. We entered the store with $134 in cash and left with 233 food items! In the end, U of U was the champion of the "Rivarly for Chartiy" and we beat the "others" by 150 points.
Final point totals were:
UofU: 943
USU: 508
BYU: 152
Others: 765
All together, my office donated 2,368 food items and cash (which is pretty cool for an office of 30 people).
Wow, that is awesome for just 30 people! I think that really says a lot about your workplace. :)
