Cross-campus food drive: Donate to help those in need

The Hamline-to-Hamline Collaboration, in partnership with Hamline Elementary and University students, staff, and  faculty, is holding a food drive to support the Food Resource Center.

Food insecurity affects many in our community, and this drive helps provide essential items to those in need.  Posters created by Hamline Elementary fourth and fifth  graders,  alongside Hamline University students can be found around campus to encourage everyone to get involved.

  • Pasta/noodles
  • Cereal
  • Crackers
  • Baking mixes and flour
  • Box/bag dinner
  • Nut butters
