NC State is continuing to find ways to help those in the state of North Carolina that have been effected by Hurricane Florence. This Saturday you can drop off goods on your way into the stadium to help those that are in desperate need of assistance in this time of crisis.
NC State has partnered with GoTriangle, United Way of the Greater Triangle, and United Way of North Carolina to receive donations in the Carter-Finley Stadium parking lots. Starting at 8 a.m., one GoTriangle bus will be parked in Lowes Foods Fan Zone and additional buses will be parked near the Close-King Indoor Practice Facility and also by the Trinity Road Tunnel as drop off points for donations. Two additional collection tents will be set up near gate 4 on the West Side of the Stadium. (GoPack)
