The Krystal hamburger chain helped us by having drop-off points in their stores and around campus." After 5 p.m., when the charity drive station closed, the items were moved to the Spur where the collected canned goods had been stored. The gifts were taken to the United Way of the Midlands Foundation, a Columbia charity organization. Carolina Cares began the charity drive in 1969 as a freshman philanthrophy group project. It then became an an nual event. Different groups help with the drive each year. Organizations donating to the drive have been: Gamma Beta Phi, Phi Beta Lambda, Kappa Kappa Psi, Chi Omega and the law library. KEMEM m jS^EEBf j-^A/k ifc?*i^^ C&.*? P^AsiW Hfli V *?x n ' V. ' ?
