ABOUT CAN THE GRIZ
2020 marks the 21st year of the Can the Griz Food Drive. This food drive is a friendly, off-field competition between Montana State University and the University of Montana to see which school can collect the most donations for their local food bank. The competition begins Saturday, November 7th and ends November 21st, at the end of the first quarter of the Brawl of the Wild football game between MSU and UM. The winner of the competition will be announced later that day. Can the Griz proceeds go to the Gallatin Valley Food Bank and benefits Bounty of the Bridgers. The Bobcats have successfully canned the Griz 17 of 20 years!
Last year, MSU and the Bozeman community donated 230,096 pounds of food plus a record $206,550 to the Gallatin Valley Food Bank. The University of Montana and Missoula community also raised a record amount for the Missoula community's local food bank. Donations from UM and the Missoula community had a grand total of 421,859 (pounds and money). We challenge the Bozeman community to help us beat the Griz this year!
Here are some ways you can donate:
Can the Griz is coordinated by the MSU Office of Student Engagement and the Gallatin Valley Food Bank.
