Stock the Bank is Back This Fall!
We’re excited to bring back Stock the Bank, the University of Waterloo’s campus-wide, friendly competition supporting the WUSA Food Support Service (FSS)!
To kick things off, check out our short welcome video below.
What’s Stock the Bank?
Departments across campus form teams to collect non-perishable food and monetary donations. Points are awarded per item and per dollar—bonus points for high-need items. At the end of the campaign, we crown a campus champion and celebrate the collective impact you’ve made for students experiencing food insecurity.
