It's Week of Welcome and the inaugural Welcome Home Wildcats donation drive is happening now. All are invited to participate in this event to raise funds and supplies for the Cats' Cupboard.

Nonstudent K-State faculty and staff who donate can enter to win Union Station by JP's prize packages donated by Housing and Dining Services, including:

  • One free Union Station by JP's family BBQ platter.
  • One "Kids cook with Chef" family dinner package plus $25 Housing and Dining Services retail gift card that can be used at Union Station by JP's and JP's Sports Grill.

Employees may receive one entry for every five items or $5 donated.

  • In-person donations
    • We request in-person donation items be limited to hygiene and food donations. To ensure safety, the Cats' Cupboard cannot use perishable items, homemade items, alcoholic beverages, open or used items, rusty or unlabeled cans. We also prefer no glass containers.
