Chris Solomona, left, and former computer science major Joseph Barker make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches near the University Bookstore on Monday. The Oregon Hillel will have a table there from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. through Thursday. It is providing the materials for at least 2,000 sandwiches to be delivered to four different local charity organizations in Eugene.
“It took a lot of hard work and detailing, but it’s worth it,” Oregon Hillel member Talya Weiner said. “It’s a great cause, and we’ll be feeding a lot of people this week.”
This is the first time the event has been held at the University. At the end of the week, the campus group with the highest sandwich total will receive $100 to donate to the organization of its choice.
