Help Feed Our Community

One in four college students nationwide faces food insecurity—and your support helps ensure no Husky goes hungry while pursuing their education.

  • 11,000+
    pounds of food distributed to support student success
  • 500+
    farmers market tokens connected students to fresh, local produce

Your Impact Makes a Real Difference

When students don't have to worry about their next meal, they can focus on what matters most—their education. Food-secure students are 24 percent more likely to graduate and maintain higher GPAs throughout their college experience.

Give Food, Give Hope

Donate non-perishable items to stock our pantry shelves and support your fellow Huskies. Every item you contribute helps a student focus on academics instead of hunger.

How to Donate Food

Most Needed Items

  • Ramen noodles, macaroni, and pasta
  • Canned proteins (tuna, chicken breast)
  • Pasta sauce and canned vegetables
  • Granola bars and oatmeal
  • Hygiene essentials (shampoo, toothbrushes, toilet paper, etc.)

Note: Due to licensing requirements, we cannot accept expired items. Consider donating these to Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly, Salvation Army, or Western Upper Peninsula Food Bank.


Donate Funds, Multiply Impact

$25 feeds one student for a full week

$100 supports 10 students during finals week

$250 stocks our pantry with fresh options for 50 families

Every dollar donated goes directly to purchasing food and maintaining our pantry operations. Your financial contribution allows us to fill gaps when specific items are needed and support our educational programs about food security.
