Preston & Steve’s Camp Out For Hunger

Attention Delaware Valley High School Students, Teachers, Administrators and Parents. Here’s your chance to help the community and win $5,000 for your class!

We’re inviting local high schools to host a food drive for Preston & Steve’s Camp Out For Hunger by collecting non-perishable food for Philabundance.  

Every high school that drops off at least 500 pounds of food during the event Monday, December 2nd – Friday, December 6th can enter to win the $5,000 prize courtesy of our friends at College Ave, a better way to pay for college.

That’s some good new Math: 500lbs+ = $5K for your school to put towards your senior trip, prom, or any special initiative at your school.

Donations will be accepted Monday, December 2nd – Friday, December 6th (hours listed below). Preston & Steve’s Camp Out For Hunger is located in the parking lot of Xfinity Live!, inside the Wells Fargo Center Complex.
