NC State Football, led by captain Davin Vann and with the support of Wolfpack Athletics, will be collecting supplies to help provide relief for those in Western North Carolina affected by Hurricane Helene. A truck will be parked beside the Close-King Indoor Practice Facility beginning today at 3 pm for anyone to drop off goods.
Vann, who is coming off the best game of his career, approached NC State head coach Dave Doeren on Monday, asking if he could spearhead efforts to help his fellow North Carolinians. He offered to provide a truck owned by his family’s moving company (Joyful Movers) to gather the goods, which will then be delivered to the Durham Rescue Mission for dissemination.
