-THE UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON'S LARGEST STUDENT ORGANIZATION-

PAST RESULTS
 

Description:
Drive 75 is an annual service event sponsored by Red Scare to benefit The Dayton Area Food Bank and Secret Smiles Organization. Drive 75 is a competition to see who can raise the most money and pounds of food between University of Dayton and Xavier University student organizations.

During this week long event groups are divided according to size and are challenged to see who can collect the most money and pounds of food. This year students from Xavier University will be participating and competing against UD.  

How to Participate:
Organizations on campus will register their group according to size (more or less than 50). Any organization can participate and new groups can be created (groups do not have to be official campus organizations to participate).

Starting February 13, groups can collect throughout the campus, including neighborhoods and residence halls. One day during the week a “dorm storm” will be held. This is where groups will be given an extra time to go out and collect around campus.  After collecting, groups will bring their items to specified location to be counted. February 20 at 6 p.m. is the last time collected items will be accepted. All totals will be added and compared to totals from Xavier. 

What to Win:
At the end of the competition, the top groups in each category will be announced at the UD/Xavier game on February 24. The group that collects the most pounds of food and money (each $1 raised = 1 pound), will receive a plaque with their group name on it.  

Goals:
Last year 3402 pounds was collected and $1214.15 was raised. This year we hope to raise over 5000 pounds of food and money combined.

 
Through Drive 75, Red Scare has been given the chance to bring the campus together to help a common cause. We look forward to seeing the same enthusiasm toward helping the Dayton Area Food Bank and Secret Smiles as we do while cheering on the Flyers.
