Pacific Food Pantry

Every gift fights hunger in the Pacific community.

The Pacific Food Pantry is a vital resource for students facing food insecurity, defined as "lacking access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food." Food insecurity manifests as skipped meals, smaller meals or altered spending habits on food purchases over time. 

As you can imagine, when students struggle with food insecurity, their studies become a struggle too. 

The Pacific Food Pantry is 100% donor funded. Your gifts provide fresh produce, non-perishable food, toiletries and other items at no cost to eligible Stockton students with a Pacific ID. Virtual grocery store gift cards are provided to students in Sacramento and San Francisco.


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