‘CAN THE CATS’ FOOD DRIVE COMPETITION BEGINS NOV. 7

MISSOULA —

The University of Montana needs your help for a victory over Montana State University and over hunger during the annual “Can the Cats” food drive competition Nov. 7-21.

UM’s Office for Civic Engagement has teamed with the University’s Office of Greek Life to provide easy ways for campus and community members to help the Griz win this year.

Beginning Saturday, Nov. 7, designated boxes for canned food donations will be located on campus in every UM residence hall, at The Source in the University Center and at the Office for Civic Engagement, located in Davidson Honors College Room 015. Collection boxes also will be placed at various Missoula locations.

Volunteers will collect canned food at Washington-Grizzly Stadium entry gates during Montana’s home game against Northern Colorado on Saturday, Nov. 14. The food drive competition winner will be declared Saturday, Nov. 21, when UM and MSU hit the field for the 109th annual Brawl of the Wild in Bozeman.

All canned food items collected by UM will be donated to the Missoula Food Bank.
