The experience of food insecurity - the risk of being without reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food - is becoming a typical experience for many college students. The vision of the EIU Campus Food Pantry is to establish a means to support students and the campus community by alleviating barriers to consistent, adequate, and healthful food. To meet the needs of our campus community, the EIU Campus Food Pantry is rooted in the core ideal that Panthers protect Panthers. It is maintained and sustained by members of the EIU students, staff, and faculty, and is reflective of the University's mission to nurture diversity and inclusion within a student-centered campus culture. Hear from student Irina Bezuglova about the Pantry's mission HERE.
