Welcome to the official website for the STUFH organization,
run in coordination with the colleges and universities of America
and their regional food banks in order to help feed the hungry.
"You are a great inspiration to me and tens of thousands of college students across America. Keep up the phenomenal work! Since 2007, with STUFH's hard work and efforts, the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank has been the receipient of 168,282 pounds from various colleges, schools, and universities.
Although the pounds
provided by STUFH are important, the real benefit lies in
the partnerships we're building. STUFH gets college students
and faculty members actively involved in finding a solution
to the growing problem of hunger. STUFH helps us reach young
people on a personal level, and sends a reminder to faculty,
staff, and the community that the need to feed is a problem
that can be solved. We've had student teams take a lead in
securing funds, volunteerism, and raising awareness to the
problem of hunger in our society. We're happy to be involved
with STUFH. Thank you for your dedication!"
"Hunger is a year-round
problem...the working poor, elderly living on a fixed income,
children living in poverty and others with difficult life circumstances
continue to need our help as they face rising food costs, the
housing crisis, and increasing utility rates.. STUFH is an active
partner in helping us meet our mission."
Martha Henk, Executive Director,
Food Bank of East Alabama.
Since the beginning of the annual Summit League Food Fight competition, over 148,000 pounds has been
raised. "It is wonderful to see each university in The Summit League show that
they care about their communities." said Dan Kahn, President of Students
Team Up To Fight Hunger. "Every food bank tells me that demand is up and
donations down during these times of economic uncertainty, so every bit
of food helps tremendously. The food fights held by these universities
will make a real difference." During the 2011-12 season, the Summit League collected 73,297 pounds of food for local communities. Learn about the STUFH Food Fight history here.
STUFH is proud of its partnership with CKI in our mutual mission devoted
to fighting hunger in America.
Food banks need help more than ever before because of these difficult
economic times. CKI clubs around the country are holding food drives throughout the
2011-2012 academic year to raise thousands of pounds of food to
continue to feed the hungry in their own local college communities. STUFH is proud of CKI and it's members' help in reaching the goal of raising
over one million pounds of food for the 2010-2011 academic year. Thank you CKI!
STUFH
is proud to carry on its partnership with Circle
K International (CKI). CKI, sponsored by Kiwanis

in the world with more than 13,000 students on 450 college
campuses in seventeen nations. This partnership enhances both
service organizations in their mutual goal of serving the
needy. Circle K International is proud to partner with March
of Dimes, UNICEF, Better World Books and STUFH.
