What is #ucancrushhunger?
#UCanCrushHunger is a friendly competition in partnership with the Community Harvest Food Bank, between local Northeast Indiana colleges, that helps provide thousands of meals to area families in need and supports food pantries on college campuses, including ours, for students facing food insecurity. Trine's goal is to raise 25,000 pounds of food in 2025! Help us crush this goal together!

Why Your Donation Matters
In 2024, we placed fourth in this competition, collecting an incredible 17,114 pounds of food! Our contribution was part of a total of 123,034 pounds raised by eight area colleges—3,034 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!
