Leave no Lend-a-Wing Pantry shelves unstocked this Winter Break
As the holiday season kicks off, the University of North Florida’s Lend-A-Wing Pantry is calling on members of the community to ensure no shelf goes unstocked.
Founded in 2012 by UNF students for UNF students, the pantry is a Student Government Executive Agency designed to combat food insecurity on campus by providing students with free, anonymous access to food, hygiene items and school supplies.
During the 2022-23 academic year, 9,441 students used the pantry for nutritional and hygiene needs, and many rely on programs like Lend-A-Wing for critical extra support.
Programs like Recreation & Wellness and the Preschool have already begun drives to collect items for the holiday season.
Donations can make a significant impact for students and their families, turning the season of giving into a season of caring. Don’t miss the chance to make a difference by dropping off healthy and nutritious food items, personal hygiene products and school supplies to the pantry, located in the John A. Delaney Student Union, Building 58E, Room 1204.
