No student should have to choose between their education and their next meal. The Pacific Food Pantry is a vital resource for students facing food insecurity—lacking reliable access to affordable, nutritious food. When students struggle with hunger, their ability to focus, learn, and succeed suffers.
Entirely donor-funded, the Pacific Food Pantry provides fresh produce, non-perishable food, toiletries, and other essentials at no cost to eligible Stockton students with a Pacific ID. Virtual grocery store gift cards are available for students in Sacramento and San Francisco.
"Thank you for your generous contribution for students like me, who stress daily whether I will be able to afford food. It is so appreciated, and words cannot describe how grateful I am." — Pacific student

- $250 = 2,500 lbs. of food OR virtual food pantry cards for five students
- $1,000 = Keeps the pantry open for over 60 hours, providing healthy meals for many students and on-campus employment for others.
Support from last year allowed Pacific to expand the pantry, making it more accessible and accommodating while offering a wider variety of nutritious foods. The pantry extended its hours to better serve students and will soon relocate to a larger more accessible space to remove barriers to access.
In the first six weeks of this spring semester, we have already had more visitors to the Pantry than we had the entire fall semester. With demand increasing by 200% over the past five years, your continued support is more critical now, than ever. By donating today, you’re ensuring that Pacific students gain access to the nourishment they need to thrive academically and personally.
