Campus food drive will benefit Student Food Pantry

Grand Valley’s Student Food Pantry, located in the Women’s Center, is seeking donations from the campus community.

Faculty and staff members have received a brown paper bag in their mailbox, to use to fill with pantry donations and drop off at designated locations on campus by Monday, October 14.

Items in high demand include laundry detergent, shampoo/conditioner, pasta sauce, pasta, oatmeal, peanut butter, jelly, canned chicken, cereal, soap, deodorant and toilet paper. Drop off locations are located on each Grand Valley campus. Click here to see all locations.

The Student Food Pantry will celebrate five years in April of 2014. The initiative began in 2009 and there were more than 500 visits to the pantry during the 2012-2013 academic year.
