MGA March Madness Food Drive

The Knights’ Table, Middle Georgia State University’s food pantry, is hosting a March Madness Food Drive sponsored by the Divisions of Student Affairs. The food drive runs March 4 through April 6. Donate items, complete the March Madness bracket challenge, and be entered for a chance to win a pair of AirPods!

Help support the Knights’ Table by donating any of our top 16 most needed items. Then complete the MGA March Madness bracket by March 24 by guessing which items will receive the most donations during each week of the food drive. The first-place bracket wins a pair of AirPods!
