Tackle Hunger

The fierce rivalry between the University of Idaho and Idaho State University takes a back seat to a more important mission during this year's Rivalry Week. The ISU Alumni Association and University of Idaho Alumni are teaming up to tackle hunger in Idaho by launching a week-long food drive in support of the Idaho Food Bank.
From Monday, November 13, to Saturday, November 18, Bengal and Vandal alumni, supporters and fans are encouraged to join forces in the fight against hunger. The initiative, aptly named "Vandals and Bengals: Tackling Hunger Together," aims to make a significant impact on the lives of Idahoans facing food insecurity.
The Idaho Food Bank (IFB) plays a crucial role in alleviating hunger across the state by distributing food to local partner agencies, schools and individuals in need. IFB’s tireless efforts have made a significant difference in the lives of countless Idaho residents, particularly during these challenging times.
