This exciting food drive competition involves our college and other universities across the Southeastern Conference, all uniting for one cause. From April 5-18, we have the opportunity to make a significant impact by donating individually wrapped items and monetary contributions. Every item and dollar will contribute toward our collective effort to support the Jane B. Gearhart Full Circle Food Pantry, with each donation counting as one point towards our university total. Let's come together as a community to support this cause and win the food fight! 

Here are a few ways you and your organization can contribute:

1. Hold a food drive for us 
2. Donate on our Amazon wishlist 
3. Give a monetary donation
