The Campus Cupboard provides students in periodic need with access to the necessities of daily living. All enrolled UA students — undergraduate, graduate, international, on-campus resident, or commuter — have access to an assortment of non-perishable food and hygiene items. When you’re in a financial pinch, we can help reduce your worries by providing you with food and personal hygiene items.
Walk-In Pantry: Offers a larger variety of more substantial non-perishable foods and full-size items.
Grab-N-Go Locations: Grab what you need as you need it from the grab-and-go shelfs stocked with shelf-stable food, menstrual products and hygiene items. This is not meant to be a grocery haul but to fill periodic needs. Please see Pick up or Walk-in details and hours for a full grocery haul. Click here for all locations.
