LSUE Food Pantry - Here on Campus!

Established in Spring 2022, the Food Pantry provides the LSUE community with supplemental support for basic grocery needs, toiletries, and cleaning supplies. In partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank, the Office of Student Affairs and LSUE Student Organizations such as SGA, SNA, and CAB, work collaboratively to ensure the pantry is kept stocked, clean, and organized for approved students to easily “shop.” The food pantry is located within the Office of Student Affairs, Mumphrey Center Room 112 and is open Monday to Friday, 8:00AM - 4:30PM. Items in stock will vary by shipments.
