Donate to Bear Pantry

Monetary and food donations are vital to the Bear Pantry’s ability to serve the needs of our students. While we gladly accept nonperishable food items, personal hygiene products (shampoo, soap, etc.), baby essentials (diapers, wipes, and formula), and school supplies, monetary donations make the greatest impact.

Financial contributions allow us to purchase the most in-demand and nutritious items — such as milk, eggs, cheese, meat, and bread that cannot be donated directly. They also give us the flexibility to restock shelves quickly, respond to changing student needs, and buy in bulk to stretch every dollar further.

By giving monetarily, you help us ensure that every Bear has access to fresh, balanced, and reliable food options throughout the year.

Please make sure that donated goods are in good condition, unopened, and not beyond their expiration date.
Items can be donated to the Bear Pantry during operating hours — see our homepage for details, the grocery basket located outside of the pantry during the hours we are closed, or at the donation bins located around campus.
