ABOUT THE PANTRY
Feed-A-Bull, an initiative spearheaded by Student Health & Wellness Center and Feeding Tampa Bay, strives to alleviate food hardship and hunger among all enrolled аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÄÚÄ»ÐÅÏ¢students by providing supplemental food, nutrition education and resources to any student in need -- whatever their situation -- in order to ensure their academic success at USF.
The confidential pantry was created as a response to the knowledge that approximately
30 percent of students face food insecurity while attending the university for a variety
of reasons, and supplemental food assistance may allow these students to focus on
their studies.
