The Stars Food Pantry at UIS plays a vital role in addressing food insecurity among students. Food insecurity can significantly impact a student's ability to focus on their studies and overall quality of life, and initiatives like the Stars Food Pantry can help bridge this gap.
It's important to emphasize that the food pantry at UIS, like many other university-based food pantries, is not intended to replace a grocery store but rather serves as a helping hand for students in times of need. It offers a range of essential food items to help students fill the gaps in their nutrition.
Using the Pantry:
Attend a walk-in Orientation Session-no appointment necessary
Visit the UIS Cares Pantry during open shopping hours. Limit of 1 visit per week
