Dining Services invites all students, faculty and staff to participate in Fill the Pantry, a weeklong food drive dedicated to filling University of Delaware’s student-led food pantry, Blue Hen Bounty, and The Food Bank of Delaware with nonperishables.

The food drive will be hosted starting on Monday, Dec. 5, through Friday, Dec. 9, in Harrington and Laird P.O.D Markets. UD community members can purchase a bag of nonperishable items; bags valued at $10, $15 or $20 will be available to purchase with points, Flex, cash or credit at participating P.O.D markets.

Food insecurity is a growing concern and continues to affect students everywhere. Dining Services is committed to working in partnership with the community to address the needs of students on the campus and will match the number of pounds of food donated during the drive with their own donation.
