Bulls win big and give back: USF supports hurricane victims during UAB matchup

| Jo-Lynn Brown

On Oct. 19, the University of South Florida hosted a memorable day at Raymond James Stadium, marked by a victory over the University of Alabama at Birmingham and efforts to support hurricane relief.

In collaboration with Feeding Tampa Bay, USF collected donations for those impacted by Hurricanes Milton and Helene, offering complimentary tickets to fans who contributed.

Additionally, USF launched the “Tampa Bay Strong” campaign to benefit students affected by the hurricanes. Fans attending the game were encouraged to pre-order special edition T-shirts, with all proceeds going to the USF Foundation’s United Support Fund.

The Bulls now look ahead to their upcoming game against Florida Atlantic on Nov. 1.
