Join Us for the Pantry Bowl: Nov. 24-Dec. 1

Before NC State faces UNC on the football field, we’re teaming up for an important cause: addressing food insecurity. The fourth annual Pantry Bowl, a friendly competition to rally support for our campus food pantries, takes place Nov. 24 through Dec. 1. Last year, the Pack showed up and led the way to our second straight bowl win with 1,634 gifts. Join us again this year to support Feed the Pack and our campus community.
