Pop-Up Pantry Provides Food Packs for Students
The Truman Food Pantry is open from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday through Friday in the Student Union Building Room 1106. The pantry is organized based on consumer choice and allows students to make their own pack or have one prepared for pick up. Students can request a pack here every two weeks.
The next pop-up pantry event will take place from 2-5 p.m. Oct. 29 in the Student Union Building Down Under. Students are encouraged to check out the food available, as well as select personal hygiene items, at no cost. The food pantry is available to all Truman students and there are no income eligibility requirements for use. Last year the pantry served more than 650 students.
Those who would like to support the food pantry can do so by donating to the Truman Food Pantry Foundation Fund. Another way to donate is by purchasing items on the Food Pantry’s Amazon Wishlist. The list is filled with a variety of items, both food and hygiene products, that are high in demand when students request packs. Physical, non-expired, food donations can also be made in the boxes outside of the SERVE Center Office in the Student Union Building 1106.
