UMW Athletics Partners with University Dining/Sodexo Stop Hunger Food Drive Oct. 20-29

University Dining/Sodexo is hosting their annual "Stop Hunger" food drive from October 13th-November 1st. UMW Athletics is once again partnering for a 10-day push from October 20th-October 29th. We hope to get a broad campus and community participation in this food drive, so that we can help our Eagle Resource Center and the Fredericksburg Regional Food Bank get the resources they need to feed UMW students and hundreds of families experiencing food insecurity. Here are some items they like to keep in stock (please only bring family size or smaller sizes. The large, commercial sized foods are difficult to distribute):

·         Mac n' Cheese

·         Canned Fruit

·         Rice

·         Instant Potatoes

·         Canned Vegetables

·         Dehydrated Milk

·         Dry or Canned Beans

·         Canned Meat

·         Pasta & Sauce

·         Hot or Cold Cereals

Courtesy of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, there will be collection bins for each team and support staff group located on the main level of Goolrick Hall throughout these dates, as well as swipe donations in the UC during lunch hours. Please consider helping out where you can!
