Freshman Class

Your virtual helps provides a safe and easy way to get food directly in the hands of those in need this holiday. Join us in this annual food drive challenge to help raise healthy food for our neighbors. 

Donating food is easy!  Click SHOP NOW to purchase the goods you would like to donate. You will be emailed a tax receipt at the time of purchase. All goods ordered online will be shipped directly to the New York Common Pantry after the drive ends for immediate distribution.

The Great Ignatian Challenge derives its name from St. Ignatius, who taught, "Love consists of sharing what one has and what one is with those one loves. Love ought to show itself in deeds more than in words." We are collectively putting those words into action. 

A key component of a Jesuit education is caring for the wider community which allows students to gain first-hand knowledge of local, national, and global issues. Through service to the community, the students prepare for the day when they will participate in their world as competent, concerned, and responsible members who are committed to social justice.

Thank you! Your contributions will strengthen our community by helping others in need this holiday season.

Online prices include shipping, handling and YouGiveGoods services.
