RALEIGH — Campbell Law School has once again won the law school division of the 2025 North Carolina Legal Feeding Frenzy, North Carolina Attorney General Jeff Jackson has announced.
The annual joint program of the N.C. Attorney General’s Office, the North Carolina Bar Association (NCBA)’s Young Lawyers Division, the North Carolina Bar Foundation (NCBF) and the seven statewide Feeding the Carolinas food banks, the competition aims to fight hunger across North Carolina by uniting the legal community in support of local food banks. The “food and fund” drive competition runs annually from March 1-31.
“While we are excited to announce that Campbell Law School has won this year’s Legal Feeding Frenzy, the real winners are the folks who will receive help from the Feeding the Carolinas food banks,” Campbell Law Dean J. Rich Leonard said.
Campbell Law won the law school division coming in with $924 or 3,696 pounds (plus 3,724 bonus pounds) followed by Wake Forest University law school with $719 or 2,876 pounds (plus 2,500 bonus pounds) and Elon University law school $112 or 448 pounds (plus 1,000 bonus pounds). Campbell Law also won back-to-back Feeding Frenzy law school division titles in 2021 and 2022.
This year’s Legal Feeding Frenzy raised a total of $140,718.45 or 563,581 pounds (includes monetary and physical donations) compared with $107,105.50 or 431,917 pounds raised in 2024, Jackson announced on May 8 during a virtual awards ceremony on Facebook Live at this link: https://buff.ly/kPyZzCO.

Shana Fisher of Fisher Law in Raleigh won the Altruist Award, which is presented each year and recognizes a volunteer, participant and/or partner who has given selflessly and made a significant impact on the event.
