Giving Tuesday
More than 1,000 Grand Valley students struggle with food insecurity each year. When students don’t have consistent access to enough quality food, it impacts them in the classroom and can derail their dream of earning a degree entirely.
This Giving Tuesday, November 28, the entire GVSU community is rallying around the Replenish Student Food Resource Fund to support students facing food insecurity. As Lakers, we help each other. This Giving Tuesday is no different. Let’s make sure all Grand Valley students have the nourishment they need to succeed.
Replenish Food Drive
From November 1 – December 1, Grand Valley is also hosting a food drive to help stock the shelves of Replenish. Please stop by one of these locations to donate nonperishable food or a personal care item. Don’t forget to fill out the donation form with your contact information when you donate. You’ll be entered into a drawing to win GVSU swag!
