CSU Students Give Back

Every fall, Colorado State University sponsors "Cans Around the Oval," an event that combines students and the surrounding Fort Collins community to provide food for those in need. Throughout the month of October, CSU students canvass nearby neighborhoods and collect non-perishable donations from the homes. Students raise awareness on campus by hosting "CANstruction" where students construct impressive sculptures from the cans they have collected. By the end of the event, CSU collects around 64,000 pounds of food and raises over $30,000 for local food banks.
