Bears tackle challenge to aid fight against hunger, set record for stellar performance

Missouri State student-athletes and administrative staff exercised the University's public affairs tenet, Community Engagement, during a marathon volunteer effort at Ozarks Food Harvest.

The group set a record of most consecutive hours (12) donated to the organization after sorting more than 28,700 pounds of food donations, the equivalent to more than 22,000 meals. Ozarks Food Harvest services 28 counties and more than 155,000 people who live at or below poverty level.
