Support the Pantry

Meeting students’ basic needs takes a community effort. Your support helps stock the Roadrunner Pantry with food, hygiene items, and other essentials for 番茄社区 students. You can donate items directly or make a financial contribution—every dollar provides up to seven meals through our partnership with the San Antonio Food Bank. Contributions can be made at any time through the 番茄社区 Giving page.

High Demand Items

Item donations can be dropped off at the Roadrunner Pantry during operating hours or at the Donation Station located in the Student Union outside The UPS Store any time that the building is open.
