  • Food Drive: Help Us, Help Others

     

     

    According to the Connecticut Food Bank,

     one in every eight people goes to bed hungry every night.

    Together we can change that.

     

    Community Outreach, UConnPIRG’s Hunger and Homelessness Campaign, and UConn's National Redidence Hall Honorary (NRHH), along with dozens of supporting campus offices and student organizations are working together to host a campus wide food drive collecting non perishable items (canned goods) the week of November 16th-20th.  Look for donation boxes throughout campus.  If you have a donation to make but do not have access to a food drop off box, please contact us!

     

    Donations will be distributed to the Manchester, Willimantic, and Storrs-Mansfield areas helping local families stay fed.

     

    If every student at UConn donated ONE can we would have over 30,000 cans of food. Help make a difference today.
