As a community, let’s keep the Viking Cupboard, the campus food pantry, well-stocked for our students!
Plan now to join the annual competition among academic departments, student services departments, the Student Senate and student organizations to raise donations and awareness of the college’s food pantry.
Here are the details:
- The challenge begins on Tuesday, Sept. 3, 2024 and ends on Monday, May 5, 2025.
- Start a team within your department and collect non-perishable food items.
- Keep track of the number of items collected and bring them to the HVCC Cupboard weekly, or as often as possible.
- Student Activities will also keep track of the total number of items collected, and the team that collects and donates the most items will be crowned the winner.
- The winning team will be awarded the Giving Cup Trophy to proudly display in their office throughout the next year’s challenge.
The Department of Computer Science and Math contributed 9,099 items to take first place in the 2023-2024 Viking Cupboard competition. Runners up were: Marvin Library, 6,575; Dental Hygiene and Mortuary Science, 6,284.
