The Student Food Pantry’s mission is to assist students in need at UTRGV by providing food supplements to those who have been impacted by financial problems/conditions and are having trouble meeting their basic need for adequate nutrition.
How does it work?
A student must initially enroll by filling out a registration form, through utrgv.edu/foodpantry/enroll or at our office. Students may only visit the food pantry once a week to receive food items. The pantry will give you a reusable bag the first time you come. Please bring this with you every time.
What is provided?
Students may receive a variety of nonperishable food such as canned fruits and vegetables and whatever food items may be available that week (depending on current inventory).
How can I volunteer?
If you are interested in volunteering at the UTRGV Student Food Pantry visit our utrgv.edu/foodpantry/volunteer and fill out the volunteer registration form. One of our staff members will contact you after you submit your information.
