Knights' Harvest Pantry

Open to all students, no questions asked.

Our Mission

Our mission is to ensure all students have access to basic food and hygiene essentials, with no questions asked. We prioritize anonymity and strive to remove the stigma around food insecurity.

All students can receive food from The Pantry. The food provided is a supplement for those facing food insecurity.

How to Receive Food

  2. Provide basic info like name, G#, contact, pickup time, food preferences, and allergies. Only Pantry staff will see this information. It will not be shared with other students.
