Local fans have plenty of opportunities to contribute.
Hundreds of Granite State families and thousands of local youth are struggling to meet their daily nutrition and dietary needs each day, and this weekend, local high school football programs will do their part to sack the state's ongoing hunger problem.

All New Hampshire football games scheduled for Friday, Nov. 1 and Saturday, Nov. 2 will provide collection points.
