The Hawkeyes have volunteered with seven local organizations — Hope Lodge, UI REACH, Big Brothers Big Sisters, VA Medical Center, Iowa City Animal Center, Grant Wood Area Education Agency, and Ronald McDonald House — throughout the year. The team will honor those organizations at the annual game, which is designed to bring awareness to the great things each organization does in the community.
UI softball is collecting donations this year, and fans who donate will be granted free admission to the game. Desired donations are listed below. All items must be new, unopened, and in its original packaging with tags. Clothing may be any color unless otherwise specified with no writing or logos.
