We’re bringing back a crowd favorite – The Rhodes State House Cup Food Drive! The following buildings will be split into teams (by color) and compete against the others. Each building will have boxes in their respective lobby for collection. We appreciate your participation, and anything you can donate!
Public Service = Blue
Science = Blue
Keese = Blue
Tech Lab = Orange
JJC = Orange
Cook Hall = Orange
Borra = White
To participate, staff and faculty in each building will donate item(s) from the list below. The items on this list are the most needed and/or most requested at our food pantry. When making donations, one must drop off all non-perishable items in the designated boxes in their building. All perishable items must be brought to the SHOP on Main Campus or the SHOP at Borra for refrigeration. If dropping off items at one of the SHOP locations, please list your building name on the items in order to claim credit. Points will be awarded per package donated, based on the scoring below.
Not into items? You can donate money! Each $1 donated is 2 points towards your building (IE $10=20 points)! Please click HERE to make a monetary donation. Be sure to click “The SHOP” in the drop-down menu. Also, to make sure your donation is credited to your building, be sure to leave a comment with your building name.
