Volunteers take a break from sorting and packing food donations on the UA Mall to watch the solar eclipse on Monday, April 8.

Community Relations organized Stuff the Cat Tran, an annual event where the campus and surrounding community come together to fight food insecurity in Southern Arizona. The event was the culmination of our month-long UA 4 Food Drive and provided volunteers the opportunity to load their nonperishable food donations into a Cat Tran for delivery to the Campus Pantry and the Community Food Bank. Volunteers collected more than 3,000 pounds of food and personal hygiene products! We extend our gratitude to everyone who participated and collected donations in their units. 

For more information on how to become involved in next year’s drive, please email Nick Hilton at hilton@arizona.edu.
