Student leaders from the Fargo- Red & Green Moorhead area organized the first “Fill the Dome” drive in 2007 with a goal of filling the entire floor of the Fargodome with donated food items. They repeated the project in 2010, raising 97 tons of food and $75,000 in donations. Student groups in Valley City, Bismarck and Grand Forks have since emulated their example.
