Join the ND Club of Staten Island & NDNY
in the Bread of Life Food Drive
The Bread of Life Food Drive (BOLD) began in 1992 when
Father Malloy, President of the University of Notre Dame, asked
each Notre Dame Alumni Club across America to give a “gift” to
its local community in the name of Notre Dame to celebrate the
150th anniversary of the University.
The Notre Dame Club of Staten Island decided that a food drive,
to be held in the spring of 1992, would be its “gift” to the Staten
Island community.
In 2013, the drive’s 21st year, the Bread of Life Food Drive
consisted of 125 schools and 80,000 items of food to be
distributed to 25 nonprofit organizations on Staten Island that
serve the hungry, homeless and families in need.
This year, NDNY is joining forces with the ND
Club of Staten Island.
We Need Your Help! Every item counts.

Sample Email:
Hi Team,
Through the week of April 11th, I am hosting a food drive
in our Office to benefit the Notre Dame Alumni Club’s
annual Bread of Life event. With your help, this event
distributes over 80,000 items to 25 local nonprofit
organizations that are need of food. I have placed a
BOLD Box by the snack drawer; please consider
dropping a nonperishable item in there to help support
our cause.
The last day to donate will be April 11th. Just filling one
box will make a difference!
Thank you for your help & Go Irish!
