Sponsor The New School Food Pantry
A message from: Ivy Wang, Assistant Director of Student Support and Advocacy
Dear New School Community,
As we approach the season of giving, The New School Food Pantry is excited to invite our campus community to sponsor our pantry by participating in an item-specific donation drive!
For those who are not familiar with the Food Pantry, it is a free resource for all current New Schools students who do not have the means to buy adequate food for themselves. Students are also eligible to use the pantry to meet the needs of all members of their household. The Food Pantry is currently located at the University Center Event Cafe Servery, located in Room L103A (downstairs from the UC lobby), and is open every day. More information can be found here.
Sponsor the Food Pantry
The Food Pantry partners with Food Bank NYC to supply the inventory for our pantry, which stocks non-perishable canned items and other food items. While these items meet the basic needs of our food pantry users, we would love to incorporate a wider selection of items. That’s where YOU come in!
You, your team, department, or unit can sponsor the pantry to support the various needs of our students. We have a wish list of items that are either highly requested by our users or not available to order via our Food Bank NYC partner. We kindly ask that donations meet the needs of this wish list. Donations may be dropped off at the pantry during drop-in hours, as listed below.
- Sunday: 9:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m.
- Monday: 9:00 a.m.–4:30 p.m.
- Tuesday: 10:00 a.m.–7:00 p.m.
- Wednesday: 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
- Thursday: 12:00 p.m.–7:00 p.m.
- Friday: 10:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
- Saturday: 9:00 a.m.–11:00 a.m.
Can’t make it to the pantry? You may also purchase items directly from our Amazon wish list to be delivered to campus.
If you intend to donate items in bulk or are not available during these times, please reach out to foodpantry@newschool.edu to coordinate a drop-off time/location.
Please forward this message along to any relevant and/or interested parties. We thank you for your contribution and care for our New School community.
