Editor's note: Student Council’s Student Life Agency was a significant contributor to the Thanksgiving Meal Kits initiative and has organized meal kits in previous years. SLA began working with the CFP to offer Thanksgiving meal kits last year. This article falsely stated that this was the first year for the initiative and framed the CFP as the main organizers. The article has been retracted for this reason.
