About

History

The Alumni Charity Challenge was established in 2013 by the VCU Alumni Richmond Chapter. During the past ten years, the Alumni Charity Challenge has collected over 319 tons of canned goods with the support of over 40+ colleges from in-state and out-of-state. Feed More collects, prepares and distributes food to neighbors in need across 29 counties and five cities in Central Virginia.

Uniting alumni chapters

The partnership with Feed More is a continuation of the VCU Alumni Richmond Chapter’s ongoing mission to serve the Richmond community through outreach. This event was established with the hopes of becoming the catalyst in mobilizing all alumni chapters in Virginia to provide ongoing support to Feed More through raising awareness, educating a unified Richmond community and collecting canned goods to actively fight food insecurity in Central Virginia.
