For the third straight year, Trine University is competing with other area universities to collect food and funds for hunger relief by taking part in the eighth annual U Can Crush Hunger.
Between now and Nov. 11, eight area colleges and universities will participate in a friendly competition to raise food and funds for hunger relief in partnership with Community Harvest Food Bank.
In addition to Trine, participants include reigning champion University of Saint Francis, as well as Huntington University, Indiana Tech, Indiana University Fort Wayne, Ivy Tech, Manchester University and Purdue University Fort Wayne.
With a goal to raise 125,000 total pounds before the competition ends, canned goods and funding can be donated to support each school’s chances of bringing home the traveling trophy for 2022.
Monetary donations can be made online at www.CHFB.org by clicking on the “U Can Crush Hunger” event page and selecting a school to support in the competition. Food donations can also be made at any of the campus locations in designated collection bins.
Each dollar donated to the competition on behalf of a participating school counts as four pounds for that school.
