Items Needed
Keep the Cupboard Stocked
Your donations help to meet people's basic needs.
As a vital community resource, we thrive thanks to your generous donations. If you're interested in contributing, please email us to arrange a drop-off. For perishable food donations, kindly notify the Cupboard in advance so we can ensure someone is available to receive and store your items. Non-perishable foods, clothing and personal hygiene supplies can be dropped off independently during our operating hours at either the Campus Cupboard (RH 140) or the Student Engagement Center (UU150).
