What is a food
pantry?- A food pantry offers a variety of food directly to those who may not
have enough food to eat. We directly serve students who experience food
insecurity and hunger. Low-income persons who need help providing food for
themselves or their families may be referred to a food pantry within their communities.
Hendricks Chapel offers our own food pantry on campus to assist students who maybe experiencing
hardships and food insecurities.
Our food pantry is supplemental and if you
require more assistance, please contact us and we can discuss additional methods
to get you what you need
