The Northwest Missouri State University community is assisting victims of Hurricane Harvey by collecting donations on the campus and at activities throughout the next week.
The “Bearcats for Texas” effort began with the Bearcat football team’s season opener August 31 at Bearcat Stadium, where all fans entering the stadium were invited to make a monetary donation of any kind at donation tables located inside the stadium.
The campaign raised $2,351 in its first night with all donations being
distributed through the Northwest Missouri Chapter of the American Red
Cross to support hurricane relief.
Northwest will continue accepting donations through Friday, September 8, at the BD Owens Library and in the Student Engagement Center, located on the second floor of the JW Jones Student Union.
Donation tables also will be stationed at the Bearcat cross country team’s home meet at 6 pm on Friday, September 1 at Donaldson Westside Park
Interested individuals also may donate $10 to American Red Cross Disaster Relief by texting REDCROSS to 90999.
