Food and Toiletries
Our pantry is stocked solely through donations, and we appreciate your support of the UNT Food Pantry presented by Kroger!
There are a variety of ways to donate:
- Physical Items:
- Drop the items off at the food pantry (behind the back of Crumley Hall- enter through Maple Street) during our curbside pick-up hours. Please come to the back (dock) of Crumley Hall under the large green awning, there will be a railing & ramp up to the door, and it will say “Diamond Eagles Student Resource Center” on the outside. You can also use these coordinates for directions for any Maps app you use – 33.208823, -97.149337.
- Items can also be dropped off at the Union, suite 409, in The Dean of Students M-F, 8am – 5pm
We can arrange to have a staff member pick up the items from you on the UNT campus. Please email DOSFoodPantry@unt.edu to arrange this.
If you have a large donation of goods or items that need to be refrigerated/ frozen, we can arrange a pickup time by emailing us at DOSFoodPantry@unt.edu
