Every gift provides needed resources for multiple students.

The Pacific Food Pantry is 100% donor funded and provides critical needed resources for students with food insecurity. Food insecurity is defined as "being without access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food." It manifests as skipped meals, smaller meals or altered spending habits on food purchases over time.

As you can imagine, when students are struggling with food insecurity, their ability to remain focused on the path to graduation is compromised.

Thanks to the generosity of individuals, grants, and corporate gifts, the Food Pantry supplies resources at no cost to students with a Pacific ID.

Each gift provides needed funds to stock non-perishable food, fresh produce, and hygiene necessities. 

• $25 = 250lbs of food
• $50 =  500lbs of food or a virtual food pantry card for one student
• $100 = 1,000lbs of food or virtual food pantry cards for two students
• $250 = 2,500lbs of food or virtual food pantry cards for five students
• $1,000 = keeps the pantry open for over 60 hours, and supports students with on-campus employment

Your gift today will help the Food Pantry serve current students and meet the increasing demand that has grown by 139% since 2019. This includes use of virtual food pantry cards in which nearly 50 requests have already been made this November.

"Thank you for your generous contribution for students like me who stress daily if I will be able to afford food. It is so appreciated and words cannot not describe how grateful I am." - Pacific student

"It was hard for me to ask for help over the years because I think that others have it harder, but it's brought to my attention that rationing my food or getting used to not eating isn't healthy."  - Pacific student
