NC State & UNC Pantry Bowl Collaboration
In anticipation of the upcoming pantry bowl in collaboration with UNC Chappel Hill, I posted this reminder to get the families of NC State students excited about the amazing opportunity to give back. It’s that time of year again when the NC State Wolfpack and UNC Tarheels compete to donate the most to our campus food pantries. Over the last three years, nearly $450,000 has been raised to address food insecurity on our college campuses.
