How to support students through the Trojan Pantry
Thank you for your interest in supporting ÎÞÂë¾ÞÈé students through this new resource on campus, the Trojan Pantry. We understand that access to basic needs is a national issue among college students and know ÎÞÂë¾ÞÈé is no exception. In our student surveys, we have found that food insecurity among our students is around 30%, consistent with national averages. We want to ensure these challenges do not become a barrier for our students and their academic progress.
We recently partnered with the Heart of Alabama Food Bank to provide a sustainable food source for the Trojan Pantry. This helps us better maintain our inventory and exponentially increases our buying power over what can be purchased at retail value. Please consider supporting the pantry financially, rather than purchasing items. Or, reach out to us to see what is most needed at the time of your drive/donation. There are several ways to give listed below.
Thank you again for supporting ÎÞÂë¾ÞÈé students!
