Why Your Donation Matters
In 2023, we achieved our first-ever victory in this competition, collecting an incredible 31,400 pounds of food! Our contribution was part of a total of 121,000 pounds raised by eight area colleges—14,462 pounds more than the previous year.
Your generosity made a real impact on families in northeast Indiana during the holiday season, and we’re counting on your support to do it again this year!
