Food insecurity is a nationwide issue, affecting college students as well. Many students at Gallaudet and colleges/universities across the country experience hunger or skip meals because they cannot afford enough to eat. Located at Ely 122, this new and improved Food Pantry aims to address this concern and is part of a growing national movement to combat hunger among college students.

To access the Food Pantry, stop by the HWP office located at ELY 103 between 9 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday through Friday, and someone will provide access to the pantry. The Food Pantry is available only for the Gallaudet University campus community. Thank you.

The pantry is intended as a supplemental source of food, not a primary food source. The food on site is mostly non-perishables, and the pantry is restocked with fresh fruits, vegetables, dairy, and non-dairy options. We are grateful that the Food Pantry is made possible through our partnerships with the Capital Area Food Bank, the Free State Chapter (MD) of the Gallaudet University Alumni Association, several Gallaudet departments, and other resources.

Together, we can make a positive impact on addressing food insecurity among our GU community.
