Staff Food Pantries

About Staff Food Pantries

In August 2024, The Programs & Events Committee (P&E) began sponsoring a monthly Food Pantry for UC Berkeley Staff. With inflation and the cost of living in the Bay Area on the constant rise, so many UC Berkeley employees and their families have continued to struggle with food insecurity, so we knew we needed to keep this resource moving that was brought to our attention in partnering with the UC Berkeley Basic Needs Center. BSA P&E is currently partnering with Alameda Food Bank to receive donations, and Berkeley Dining to support the space to operate the Pantries. In the last hour of each Pantry we will serve students as we would like the least left over amount at the end of each Pantry. Any remaining food items will be donated to the UC Berkeley Basic Needs Center.

The monthly Staff Pantries for fiscal year 2024-2025 are listed below. We will do our best to update this page with current Pantry items and past offerings. 

We also have developed an anonymous feedback form for you to share your experience, comments, concerns, or provide us with ideas for how we can make the Pantries better.

Since we can only offer a monthly pantry at this time, we ask that if you need additional resources please reach out to the Food Bank's Food Helpline (1-510-635-3663) or visit https://www.foodnow.net/find-a-food-pantry

Please reach out to bsaevents@berkeley.edu with any questions.
