SLIPPERY ROCK, Pa. –  In recognition of Fight Hunger Month, the Slippery Rock University Athletics Department will partner with Rock Pantry+ on the SRU campus for a charitable drive to collect food and hygiene products at Saturday's football game against California (Pa.).
 
Fans are encouraged to bring donations such as canned goods, granola bars, pasta, rice, peanut butter, shampoo, soap, toothpaste, deodorant and other daily essentials. Monetary contributions will also be accepted. A full list of recommended donation items is available at the link above.
 
Rock Pantry+ is Slippery Rock University's food pantry, providing supplementary food and resources to students experiencing food insecurity on campus. The mission of Rock Pantry+ is to reduce hunger for SRU students and to provide access to a high-quality variety of food options, tools for meal preparation and toiletries at no cost.
 
All active SRU students are eligible to utilize Rock Pantry+.
 
Collection tables will be located at all stadium entrances Saturday night, staffed by Rock Pantry+ volunteers and student-athletes. Gates open at 4:30 p.m., with donations accepted through 6:30 p.m. Kickoff against the Vulcans is set for 6:02 p.m.
 
"Game day is always about coming together as a community," said Dr. Roberta Page, SRU director of athletics. "By supporting Rock Pantry+, fans can help ensure that every student at The Rock has the resources they need to succeed."
 
Fans are asked to look for collection stations outside each entry gate. Every contribution—big or small—helps strengthen The Rock community and tackle hunger on campus.
