           EGO and Gamma Mu Chapters Stepping Up to Fight Food
           Insecurity!

           We’re proud to share the incredible impact made by the EGO
           Chapter’s Uplift Program Committee and the Gamma Mu
           Chapter, who recently teamed up to deliver much-needed do-
           nations to the Alabama A&M University Bulldog Pantry!

           Food insecurity is a challenge faced by students on campuses
           across the country, and Alabama A&M is no different. These
           donations go beyond helping students—they provide hope. One student shared their gratitude:

           “I’m so appreciative that the Bulldog Market serves students in need. I have my own apartment for the
           first time, and I come from a low-income family. I can’t buy everything I need, but the Bulldog Market
           mitigates that!”

           Pantry manager Debra Harris emphasized how vital this support is. Some students can only take three
           items a day, underscoring how important these contributions are. Thanks to your generosity, students can
           focus on their studies, knowing their basic needs are met.
