On Wednesday, December 13 East Stroudsburg University faculty and staff gathered to celebrate the end of the semester and the holiday season with luncheon.

Those in attendance brought donations for the Warrior Food Pantry.

Along with donations of non-perishable food items, faculty and staff collectively donated $1,185 in gift cards to local grocery stores.

The Warrior Food Pantry is a self-service pantry that allows students to obtain the necessary food to support their well-being.

The pantry is housed at St. Matthew’s Church, and is open to exclusively to ESU students each Tuesday during academic semesters from 2-4 p.m.

The pantry is operated by retired faculty (APSCURF) and retired staff who volunteer their time to make sure our students in need are able to utilize the pantry services in collaboration with St. Matthew’s Church in East Stroudsburg.
