UC Irvine Holds Its 17th Clash of the Cans Food Drive From November 2 to December 11: Donation Bins on Campus and at the Medical Center, With Money Donations Supporting the Orange County Food Bank and the Campus Basic Needs Center
The University of California, Irvine is holding its 17th annual Clash of the Cans food drive from November 2 to December 11, collecting food and money donations for Orange County families in need.
During the drive, donation bins are placed at locations across the campus and at UCI Medical Center, where students, staff and visitors can drop off shelf stable food. Money donations support the Orange County food bank and the UC Irvine Basic Needs Center.
The university said the drive, now in its 17th year, is one of its regular community service programs, with collected food distributed to Orange County residents through food bank channels.
The drive overlaps with National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week, observed from November 15 to 21. The university used its event page to call on the campus community to pay attention to food security and housing issues during that week.
Donation instructions and bin locations are listed on the UC Irvine Parking and Transportation Services outreach page. The drive runs through December 11.
