Description
Food insecurity is a prominent and prevalent issue on college campuses, affecting on average 1 in 3 students nationally.
Join the Kaufman Interfaith Institute and our partner organizations - including United Campus Christian Fellowship, InterVarsity, and Campus Ministry - as we collect items for GVSU's basic needs center: Replenish. The Replenish location in Allendale can take shelf-stable items, refrigerated and freezer items, clothing, and other essential items. Check out their website for a list of suggested items for donation.
While we hope you will join us at the Clocktower on Thursday, September 21st, you are welcome to donate to Replenish any time during their operating hours.

If you are experiencing food insecurity, dealing with illness, sick family members, financial difficulties, travel difficulties, a bad internet connection, increased anxiety, childcare challenges, or any other issues, Replenish along with numerous other GVSU support resources are available to help. Start here with on-campus resources.
