When our students have insufficient access to food, it can cause them physical and mental stress. It's our mission to ease this stress and provide awareness and easy access to quality food.
We're a nonprofit organization and rely on donations from NIU employees, students and alumni, as well as community members. We're also grateful to receive food through the Northern Illinois Food Bank. However, food supplies are often limited.
We invite you to join our efforts by organizing a food drive. Through this collaborative, generous action, you'll supply Huskies with much-needed food and make a big difference on campus.
Thank you for caring about the well-being and success of NIU students!
August 30 – December 14, 2023 Wednesday: 4– 6 p.m. Thursday: 4–6 p.m.
Closed during summer break.
If you can't get to the pantry during regular hours, you may call or email the Center for Student Assistance (CSA) to make alternative arrangements.
