Donate to the Pantries


There are three primary ways to support student food security:

  1. Purchase items on our Amazon wish list and deliver them directly to the pantry!
  2. Donate via credit card via the Give to the Pantry link in the side menu on the left of the page (bottom of page on mobile devices).
  3. Donate non-perishable food, hygiene, or household items. Drop-off at the Wildcat Pantry in Brooks Library 153B.

We do NOT accept expired, unsealed, or damaged items. As well, we do not accept bulk bought goods (e.g. beans, coffee beans, spices) that were perosnally packaged within the store.
