    Appalachian Studies Center's Food Pantry

    In 2016, the Appalachian Studies Center and a committee of UNG volunteers opened a food and supply pantry at the Historic Vickery House for students, staff and faculty. The UNG Food Pantry is not a university-funded service. We finance our services through financial and food donations as well as fundraising events.

    Need to Use the Pantry?

    This pantry uses a supermarket model; you “shop” for yourself to get the food you need for the week. Bring your UNG ID. If the door to the building is locked, call or text one of the numbers posted on the doors.

    Want to Donate?

    We cannot accept canned vegetables or ramen noodles at this time. We are completely out of bread, milk, eggs, frozen meat and/or entrees. We always need tuna fish, canned meat, peanut butter, and breakfast foods.
