Upcoming Service Saturday Projects

Bozeman Youth Initiative/1,000 New Gardens
Wake up to rake up! Bozeman Youth Initiative needs help gathering compostable materials for their 1,000 New
Gardens program. Collect leaves, fallen branches, and other “carbon rich” materials. All of the gathered materials will be deposited into one of two local compost sites, which will help 1,000 local families begin gardens this upcoming spring. 

Can the Griz- Food Drive Collection
Volunteers will be collecting non-perishable food items from Bozeman area neighborhoods as part of the Can the Griz Food Drive competition between MSU and UM to see who can collect more food for their community food banks by the day of the Cat-Griz football game!  We will be collecting what we hope will be 100’s of pounds of food donations for the Gallatin Valley Food Bank.

Huffing for Stuffing
Help assemble 2,500 race packets for the Huffing for Stuffing Thanksgiving Day Run, a large fundraiser for the Gallatin Valley Food Bank.  Help make this important event a success!

Can the Griz- Tailgate Collection
Volunteers will be collecting non-perishable food items and handing out flyers to football game tailgaters to spread awareness of the Can the Griz Food Drive competition between MSU and UM.  Last year MSU’s 14,000 lbs. of food beat out UM’s 4,000 lbs. so let’s do it again…
