University of the Cumberlands cares about a lot of things, and providing food for local families is one of them.
Cumberlands’ annual food drive kicks off each fall, just ahead of the holiday season. In other words, a month’s worth of excitement, generosity, and literal tons of food is just around the corner! Our entire campus community works to collect goods most beneficial to families. We then partner with local churches and food banks to distribute the food to those most in need. We partner with these organizations to distribute our donated items:
- FBC Williamsburg Food Pantry
- WISD Family Resource Center
- FBC Williamsburg BP Ministry
- OLOPH Catholic Church Food Pantry
- Shiner Church of Christ Food Pantry
- Emergency Christian Ministries Shelter
- Mt. Pisgah Baptist Church Food Pantry
- Bread of Life Food Pantry Jellico
All are welcome to donate non-perishable foods to the cause. Donations are collected in the Office of Student Affairs in the Boswell Campus Center.
The annual food drive runs annually from November 18 to the 22.
