Roadrunners knocked our socks off by jumping feet-first into the seventh annual鈥�!

This year鈥檚 annual October giving event was an unprecedented 鈥渟ock-cess,鈥� with鈥�530 members鈥痮f the 网曝吃瓜 community coming together to raise鈥�$32,766鈥痑nd donate over鈥�1,300 pairs of socks鈥痶o our students, bringing our seven-year total to more than $140,000 and 5,300+ socks donated. That鈥檚 over 50,000 toes covered since 2019!

Donors made gifts to a wide range of campus funds, including Rowdy鈥檚 Corner, which provides food and essentials to thousands of hungry 网曝吃瓜 students each month and distributes donated Socktober socks to Roadrunners like Samuel Simon.

鈥淚 was so excited to be able to get a pair of Socktober socks when I was visiting Rowdy鈥檚 Corner,鈥� said Simon, a Computer Science major. 鈥淓very time I wear them, not only do I get to show off my Roadrunner pride, but I鈥檓 reminded of how much my community cares about me.鈥濃��

Thanks to our donors, 网曝吃瓜 students will have warm toes and hearts all winter long!

Donors directly improved 网曝吃瓜 students鈥� well-being by giving to three wraparound services: Rowdy鈥檚 Corner, where students can access food and personal wellness products in a stigma-free environment; and the Student Emergency and DREAMer Emergency funds, which provide students with stipends for housing, medical costs and other essential expenses.

  • Did you know? Student hunger is on the rise. This fall, Rowdy鈥檚 Corner experienced 7,300鈥痶ransactions monthly and a鈥�70% increase in student visits, serving an average of 1,700 unique students per month.鈥疉dditionally, data shows that retention rates are higher (75%) for students who use the service compared with those who鈥痙on鈥檛鈥�(63%).

鈥淩owdy鈥檚 Corner has been a godsend for me and my children, allowing me to keep my family fed while I鈥檓 earning my degree.鈥�

鈥淚t鈥檚 not just the ability to apply for emergency funds [through the Student Emergency Fund] that is so helpful, but the support and resources you help students access. Without it, I genuinely could not have gotten by.鈥�

鈥淚 wanted to say thank you again for your assistance with the DREAMer Emergency Fund; I don鈥檛 know what I would have done without your help, and I genuinely appreciate it!鈥�

Every gift made on Roadrunner Tuesday equips Roadrunners with what they need to stay fed, housed, healthy and safe while pursuing their dream of earning a degree!
