- Russell: 11 a.m. - 2 p.m., 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. and 8 - 9 p.m.

Blue Hens can donate any of the following:
- Up to two of their guest meals from an unlimited or 14 weekly meal plan
- Up to five guest or regular meals from a block meal plan
- Any amount of FLEX dollars, which can be added to any ONEcard on the UD

Swipe Out Hunger is a national nonprofit focused on ending college hunger. This program allows students to donate unused meal swipes to students on campus experiencing food insecurity and has spread to more than 80 college campuses across the United States.
