No student at Â鶹ӳ»­Ó°Òô should ever go hungry.

Food insecurity is a problem that some LU students have to deal with from time to time.

To help prevent this issue, we've teamed up with our partners across campus to create the Cardinals Food Pantry, a free and anonymous food pantry especially for LU students.

Hours:
Monday - Thursday, 9 am - 5 pm

Location: Wesley Foundation at LU
Between Combs Hall and Brooks Shivers Dining Hall

Phone: 409-728-7473

Mission

The mission of the Cardinals Pantry is to help Â鶹ӳ»­Ó°Òô students succeed in their pursuit of higher education by providing access to free, nutritious food and additional resources.

  • Student Affairs and Strategic Initiatives
  • Chartwells at Â鶹ӳ»­Ó°Òô

Eligibility

All currently enrolled students at Â鶹ӳ»­Ó°Òô are eligible for this program. Stop by the Wesley Foundation during our open hours.


We'll keep your information confidential, and we'll help you find the resources you need to succeed.
