*IMPORTANT* New Appointment System Launching February 15th 2023.
As you may have noticed, the College Student Pantry has been tinkering with our appointment system this year to figure out how to best serve students. We have discovered that our walk-in system creates uncertainty and long waits for almost everyone. As a result, we are switching back to an appointment-based system that we hope will allow everyone to get the groceries they need in a timely manner without long waits. PLEASE read the following information so you understand how this is going to work starting next pantry.
What's Changing?
There will be 15 minute time slots you must sign up for during hours of operation.
There is a 10 minute grace period if you are late to your appointment. If you do not make your appointment or miss this grace period you are now considered a walk-in.
Walk-In's will be seen based on availability and will likely have to wait a while to get groceries. If you are unable to wait, our staff will gladly pack you a prepared bag of groceries that adheres to your dietary restrictions.
Want to make an appointment for next time? At the conclusion of pantry hours (7PM) on a Wednesday we are open, appointment slots will open up on our website for the following pantry. Example: When the pantry closes at 7pm on the first Wednesday in October, appointment slots will become available for the second Wednesday in October.
What’s Staying the Same?
We will continue to operate every first and third Wednesday of the month from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
You can continue signing up for appointments via our JotForm on our website or Instagram Bio.
We are committed to providing groceries to all college students in our area. Even if you don’t make an appointment or have time to wait to shop in the pantry, we will pack a bag for you and make sure you get the food you need.
Let us know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns at collegestudentpantry@gmail.com.
Are you going to change this again next month?
No! We are committed to doing this new system through the summer and most likely, indefinitely.
