About the Food Pantry

• The primary objective of the pantry is to meet the immediate food needs of students on campus.
• Based on student need, the second objective of the pantry is to meet the short-term food needs of students.
• The final objective of the pantry is to meet the emergency non-food needs of students.
• The pantry serves approximately 25 - 30 students per month.
• The pantry is housed in the Old Main Building in suite 200.
• In order to maintain students’ confidentiality and dignity, accessing the food pantry does not require application or approval. It is available to any student with a need.

How Can I Make a Donation?

The food pantry items are needed all year long. As mentioned above, we serve 25 - 30 students per month and supplies can become limited. As a TWU community, let’s help our students by supplying non-perishable food items and necessities for daily living.

The Office of Lifelong Learning has volunteered to accept donations for the food pantry. Take your items to the Administration Conference Tower, second floor room 221. The items can also be delivered to the food pantry located in Old Main Building, suite 200. Donations will be accepted Monday - Friday,
8:00 am - 5:00 pm.
