PennWest California Pantry
Food insecurity can keep college students from reaching their educational goals.
The PennWest California Pantry assists our students by providing food, academic supplies and personal hygiene items, so they can continue on the path toward graduation.
Operated by PennWest California’s Center for Volunteer Programs and Service Learning and supported by our generous donors, the campus-based food pantry helps to meet students’ basic needs with compassion and discretion. We recognize that even ambitious, hard-working college students sometimes need a helping hand.
Make a Request
Students in need can ask to receive food or non-food supplies (personal hygiene items
or school supplies) online. Requests placed by the close of business on Mondays will
be available for pickup on Wednesdays. You will receive a confirmation notice with
next steps once you make your request.
If you are in need or have an emergency, please contact calucupboard@pennwest.edu.
Give to the Pantry
Donations stock the PennWest California Pantry. Whether you use Square to make a monetary donation or select items from our Amazon wish list, your generosity will make a difference in the lives of our PennWest California students.
