Bearcats Pantry Charge: To develop a resource distribution plan that meets the various insecurity needs of the University of Cincinnati Student to assure academic and personal success.

Mission: The UC Bearcats Pantry provides free food, hygiene items, and cleaning supplies to students with food and other insecurities. The pantry also provides meal vouchers that can be used at campus dining halls. The pantry is meant to provide supplemental support which means we do not supply enough food to completely eradicate food insecurity. Our goal is to assist students in need by cutting down their grocery bills and connecting them to other resources in an effort to promote independence. 

Training: If you have not previously volunteered with the Bearcats Pantry, you will be required to attend a training prior to completing volunteer hours with us. Two training sessions will be held on the last Monday and Tuesday of each month. To sign up for a training, go back to our "Needs" page and select a session that you are available for.
