The Stop Hunger Food Drive, which is co-sponsored by University Dining and the UMW Department of Athletics, has been extended to Friday, November 22nd. The athletes have already collected over 6300 pounds of food that was donated to both the Gwen Hale Resource Center (GHRC) and the Fredericksburg Regional Food Bank. The dining team is hoping to collect additional food items that will all be given directly to the GHRC.
Donation boxes can be found in every campus restaurant. They are wrapped in red plastic and have brightly colored signs indicating that they are designated for the Stop Hunger food drive. All non-perishable food items that are within their expiration dates are welcome.
