Zaire Riley, a FAMU DRS student, has been selected to represent the United States as a member of the U-17 National Team at the International Bowl XI. Riley has the opportunity to train with USA Football and play in a game on Wednesday, January 15.

The FAMU DRS Food Pantry has been filled with over 1,680 pounds of food, which includes noodles, assorted lentils and beans and other non-perishable items thanks to donations from FAMU DRS Community Partners, Tim Mosley and Tallahassee’s own Radio Celebrity DJ Dapp, Program Director of WWLD Blazin 102.3. Mosley and DJ Dapp joined forces to assist FAMU DRS students and parents who are in need of a helping hand throughout the school year. Through foundations like The Less Fortunate Matters, spearheaded by Mosley and The Loreen Mathis Foundation, operated by DJ Dapp, FAMU DRS is able to add to our FAMU DRS Food Pantry stock and provide assistance to students/families enrolled at FAMU DRS this school year.
