Mission Statement
The Lobo Pantry is in place to assist students who are concerned with food insecurity/access. Students can contact us themselves or a faculty/staff member can reach out and recommend services for a student in need. Students are eligible to receive items at least monthly, but possibly more often, depending on the supply. The Lobo Pantry began with Coronavirus grant funding in the summer of 2020. If you would like to donate non-perishable food and hygiene products, please contact us!

Testimonials
Below are a few of testimonials from our Lobos!
"The Lobo Pantry has been amazing resource with a great staff that helps out so much...provided me with basic food when I didn't have enough money for groceries."
"I appreciate being able to pick up some basics from the pantry... I also enjoy being able to take foods hat I normally would deny myself from purchasing, like desserts. Even though the sweet foods aren't essential for survival, it makes me feel a lot better to have a treat every now and then."
"The Lobo Pantry has literally saved my family and I. After paying off all my necessary bills for the month, I am usually left with very little money for groceries. We are grateful for Katy and her student workers.""
"We as students are grateful for such a program like the lobo pantry ❤️"
