Feed the Need Campus Food Drive

Bring your bike, bring your friends, and most importantly, bring a non-perishable food item to donate! Our Stuff the Bus initiative will be part of the ride, with a bus on-site where riders and community members can drop off their donations and help us fill it up.

Every can, box, and bag makes a difference. Together, we can turn a fun day on the bike into a powerful show of community support.
