Relocating

The student food pantry will be closed March 30-April 5 while we relocate from Sabin House to Raymond House (across from the Mudd Library turnaround).

Food Pantry Hours

Beginning April 7: 

  • Hours: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, 10am – 2pm
  • Location: Raymond House 1st floor


Guidelines:

  • Only one person at a time is allowed into the pantry area
  • Use hand sanitize before entering the space
  • Practice social distancing if you are waiting to enter

Canned goods and prepackaged food items are available, along with plastic utensils, paper plates and napkins, packages of tampons, and other hygiene products. Students can take up to 7 items per visit.

How to Help

Lawrence University staff and faculty, as well as LU alumni and friends, can view the Amazon Wish List to shop for items to donate. During spring term 2020, for health precautionary reasons, the food pantry is only accepting donations shipped to the campus; we request that you do not drop off individual items for the food pantry.

Here's a link to the Amazon Wish List for the LU food pantry.

Questions? If you have questions about donating to the pantry, send an email to LU organizer Kate Zoromski at kathryn.a.zoromski@lawrence.edu.
