DEN Food Pantry
The Daily Eating Necessities (DEN) Food Pantry is a project developed by the Associated Student Government to provide small snacks for students struggling with food insecurity. ASG is also collecting “on the go”, microwavable meal options for students as well as self-care products. The DEN will help alleviate stress students experience from food insecurity while they are on campus. Please read the information below to learn more about the DEN and the huge impact it has on our college campus!
