Mizzou just broke a campus record for donations counting toward the SEC Food Fight, a monthlong competition among conference universities to support campus food pantries. In total, Mizzou earned more than 102,000 points, a 66% increase over the previous year, and placed second overall among the participating universities.
 
Our strong growth was driven by Mizzou students and community members, who earned points by contributing food, monetary support and basic need items for Tiger Pantry, an MSA auxiliary that helps those in need on campus.
 
This year, we raised nearly $35,000, including more than $6,000 on Mizzou Giving Day alone. Students and campus partners also donated more than 50,000 food items, including over 40,000 items collected during the Greek Week Can Drive.
 
Across all competing universities, nearly 600,000 points were earned – reflecting our incredible collective impact on campuses across the conference.
 
Thank you to everyone who contributed and helped make a difference for our fellow Tigers. We’re ready to break even more records next year.
