As of May 8, the UMB Student Pantry needs just 65 meal kits to reach this year’s goal of 300. Each kit costs $10 to create and provides four servings of food per student.
Did you know that 20.8 percent of UMB students were worried at least once a month whether their food would run out before they got money to buy more?
The adverse effects of food insecurity on student mental and physical health can be seen on college campuses across the country. As a recognized Hunger-Free Campus, UMB is committed to supporting students experiencing food insecurity through traditional and innovative initiatives.
This year’s meal kit challenge runs from April 22 to May 21. Please consider funding one or more meal kits today.
