This week, for every four swipes, one large pizza with three toppings and six cans of Coke will be delivered to the homeless by volunteers called Vincentians of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul’s UCLA Youth Conference, a Catholic charity program. The fall quarter is coming to a close, and most students living in the dormitories have plenty of meal-plan swipes left over.
At the end of every quarter, most students who do not use all of their meal swipes have the opportunity to donate food to a charity that provides homeless people on Skid Row with a hot meal instead of letting the swipes go unused.
