A food pantry for NAU

Helping the Northern Arizona University community. We are students helping students and staff by providing perishable and nonperishable food and resources. Many students struggle with the expenses of college. Some struggle to afford books or rent, but many college students face limited financial resources to buy groceries or a meal plan. The concept of a campus food pantry—Louie’s Cupboard—started with a class project geared towards social movements. Now each year we serve hundreds of students, staff, and faculty through biweekly food distributions. We provide nonperishable canned and boxed goods, fruit, meat, beans, pasta, grains. We also now offer eggs, fresh fruits, vegetables, and bread.

Bi-Weekly Distributions:

All distributions will take place from 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. on the designated dates (see below) in the University Union, Room 212. A permit is required at all times to park in lot P16 across from Cline Library.

For more information regarding Louie’s Cupboard or to obtain a food box on non-distribution dates, please contact LouiesCupboard@nau.edu.

Please submit our registration form each time you plan on coming to a distribution. Be prepared to show your confirmation email to Louie’s Cupboard volunteers when you arrive.
