Vandal Food Pantry
The Vandal Food Pantry (VFP) is a donation-based pantry that aims to serve those in our community who are facing short term food insecurity. We rely on your kind donations and food drives to keep our pantry stocked.
We want Vandals to focus on their studies and work without the burden of food insecurity. The Vandal Food Pantry is designed and managed for Vandals by Vandals. Please reach out with any questions about our services at foodpantry@uidaho.edu or 208-885-6078.

How does it work? If any student, staff, and/or faculty member are experiencing food insecurity, they may receive a limited number of emergency meal swipes to campus dining facilities. To receive these swipes please submit a VandalCARE report and you will be connected with a VandalCARE team representative to assist you.
