Campus Harvest Food Pantry

Who We Are

The Campus Harvest Food Pantry Fund provides UW-Eau Claire students with consistent access to nutritious food and personal care items. The pantry supports students living both on-campus (49%) and off-campus (51%), many of whom maintain strong academic performance—75% have a 3.0 GPA or higher. The Campus Harvest Food Pantry is run by the Dean of Students office, with a paid student intern, volunteers, and community partners helping to distribute food and supplies each month.

What We're Fundraising For

Your gift helps expand the pantry’s offerings to meet students’ diverse needs. Each year, Campus Harvest distributes thousands of pounds of food and hundreds of meals thanks to partnerships with Feed My People, Sodexo, and Kwik Trip, and of course, donations from our generous supporters. Donations enable us to purchase additional microwavable and frozen meals, as well as personal care products such as lotions and conditioners, ensuring students have the resources to stay healthy, focused, and supported.    

Your Impact

Every contribution helps feed students and support their success. In an average month, Campus Harvest serves dozens of students, providing meals, groceries, and essentials that empower them to continue their education. By giving today, you help ensure that students—40% of whom are seniors and 21% of whom are in multicultural programs—can stay on track, complete their degrees, and thrive at UW-Eau Claire.
