Our Mission

The ASI Food Pantry exists to provide food and basic necessities to Sac State students with financial hardships and low food security, at no cost. In addition to helping alleviate hunger within our student community, the ASI Food Pantry aims to decrease the negative impact that low food security has on the academic success of our students.

Eligibility, First-Timers

Currently enrolled Sac State students can shop at the ASI Food Pantry or place a locker order once per week.

At your first visit, you will need to create your personal PantrySoft account, which will allow you to browse through available services such as Build-A-Bag, Lockers, and Appointments.

Location (University Union)

The ASI Food Pantry has its own outside entrance on the north side of the University Union, separate from the rest of the 1st floor. Look for the ramp leading down to the ASI Food Pantry door and enter through the north side of the building (alleyway between the Union and Santa Clara Hall).
