DU Food Pantry
National studies show that students in higher education are highly vulnerable to food and housing insecurity. We know this is the case at DU, as well. The DU Food Pantry exists as a free and open resource for anyone with a DU ID number to supplement their weekly food supply in times of need. New visitors are asked to fill out a short demographic survey.
2022-2023 UPDATE
As of the Winter quarter, 2023, the DU Food Pantry returned to its former mode of operation for its patrons. Rather than in previous years, where we asked that all orders be placed online in advance, we began offering drop-in hours for anybody seeking our services to fill their bags themselves. We believe that by offering the option for patrons to come in and see our selection first-hand, they will have more freedom of choice and be able to tailor their bags to their needs. The Food Pantry has officially moved to Driscoll Student Center South (room 6, bottom floor to the left of the ID office). Hours of operation:
Monday: 2 - 6 pm
Tuesday: 2 - 6 pm
Wednesday: Closed
Thursday: 2 - 6 p
Friday: Closed
Saturday: Closed
Sunday: 2 - 6 pm
*Options that cater to specific allergies and diets are available.
If you have any questions, concerns, or can’t make the times listed above, please don't hesitate to reach out to foodpantry@du.edu.
Visitors are provided with up to one bag of food per week. New visitors will get a free reusable bag and are expected to bring this with them on future visits. This is to reduce the waste generated by food pantry visits and also to ensure that this shared resource is able to serve all who need it.
