The 2025 Dogs of Boise State Calendar is Here!
By purchasing a 2025 Dogs of Boise State calendar, you are providing
Boise State students with free, nourishing food and hygiene items with
dignity, respect, and care. The Campus Food Pantry offers a variety of
fresh produce, fresh bread, refrigerated items, frozen items, canned and
boxed foods, snack options, and personal hygiene products.
In the Spring 2024 semester, the Pantry served over 18,000 student visits! This is a substantial increase in usage, and they expect it to increase even more during the upcoming fall semester.
As the demand for food has grown, so has the Pantry.
During this past academic year, the Pantry distributed over 300,000 pounds of food to students in need.
The Pantry team consists of 10 people. Seven part-time student staff to maintain daily operations of the Pantry, one part-time staff delivery driver, as well as two full-time staff members, Emily Hester, to serve as the Business Operations Coordinator and Michelle Cain, to serve as the Manager of Student Basic Needs Resources for Boise State University. The additional staff dedicated to serving pantry users has increased capacity and allowed their team to accept larger donations, drives, and partnerships.
The Pantry continually participates in the Idaho Foodbank's Food Rescue Program. This Program connects local businesses with the Pantry, to accept surplus food and hygiene items that the Pantry can then distribute to Boise State students. During the Spring 2024 semester, the Food Rescue Program provided over 30,000 pounds of food; many of these donations include fresh produce, pre-made sandwiches and wraps, dairy products, and bread.
By donating, you are supporting our mission, "Every Student. Every Bronco. A Full Plate."
