€1,000 worth of Aldi gift vouchers have been donated to UCC's Students’ Union food bank.
THE SU made a national appeal after it ran out of supplies just 50 minutes after opening
last week.
Students’ Union representatives are attributing the high demand to rising rental prices, leaving many students struggling to afford their weekly shop.
Aldi is giving shoppers the opportunity to donate towards struggling UCC students by rolling out new food donation points at its its stores in
Glanmire, Blackrock, Passage West, Douglas Village, Grange, Ballyphehane, Wilton, Elysian, Mayfield, Blackpool and the two stores in Ballincollig.
