Your on campus food pantry and clothing exchange!
An official page of the University of Maine.
FOOD PANTRY: The food pantry is open to students and their immediate families as well as staff and faculty. There is no income requirement and no application process. Just present a valid MaineCard or ID from any other college or university to get a BBE Card approved for the food pantry. Our focus is supporting those who are not able to obtain assistance from other community sources.
CLOTHING EXCHANGE: The Clothing Exchange is open to anyone and everyone!!!! People are encouraged to bring gently worn items to exchange/swap or small donations can be made instead. The money then goes to buy food for the food pantry. Our goal with this sustainable project is to reduce stigma surrounding food pantries and thrift stores while providing support to the community. If you have clothing to donate, but can’t find anything you need right now, you can “bank” your points and use them later. Know someone that has a need? Give your points to them!
