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.
To support this initiative, individuals are encouraged to make donations at idahofoodbank.org/tacklinghunger/ or drop off non-perishable food items at any food bank location. Supporters are encouraged to share their involvement on social media using the hashtag #TacklingHungerTogether.
Join the Bengals and Vandals in making this year's Rivalry Week more than just a game – let's make it a week of compassion, unity and support for our fellow Idahoans.
