Billiken Athletics, in partnership with Neighbors Credit Union, proudly announced the successful completion of the 2025–26 “Block Out Hunger” campaign, raising $5,180 to benefit Operation Food Search and its mission to fight hunger and food insecurity across the St. Louis region.

Now in its third consecutive year, the initiative once again demonstrated the powerful impact of combining community partnerships with the excitement of Billiken basketball. Throughout the regular season, the Saint Louis University men’s and women’s basketball teams combined for 259 total blocks, with Neighbors Credit Union donating $20 for every block recorded.
