The University of Louisiana Monroe student food pantry remains open despite the ULM activity center’s closure due to COVID-19. The food pantry hours have been adjusted to noon-3 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Students can knock at the front door to enter or call 318-342-5305.
The food is from the Food Bank of Northeast Louisiana. It is available to all ULM students, with a valid ID, at no cost.
The food pantry started this semester, and at that time, students could come in and get what they needed.
The pantry is well stocked with nonperishables – canned fruits and vegetables, beans, rice, lentils, flour, peanut butter, and other items, plus some beverages.
“The food pantry is a resource for students, and we want them to use it,” said Vice President of Student Affairs Camile Currier.
