Throughout 2024, several departments and events at East Stroudsburg University (ESU) contributed to the Warrior Food Pantry, which serves as a vital resource for students in need. The 10th Annual Martin Luther King Day of Service, the Red & Black Breakfast and the Faculty & Staff Holiday Luncheon all provided opportunities for faculty and staff to donate food items, toiletries, cleaning supplies, and gift cards to local grocery stores.<\/p>\n
Other events that supported the pantry included the College of Arts and Sciences\u2019 Chili Fest; the Hotel, Restaurant, and Tourism Management department\u2019s Empty Bowls event at ESU\u2019s student-run restaurant, P&Js, which raised $3,750; the Warrior Yard Sale, featuring donations of clothing, bedding and electronics from students cleaning out their residence halls, with all proceeds benefiting the pantry; and the Sport Management departments\u2019 Organization and Administration class, which organized a pickleball tournament with 32 teams and collected over 250 items.<\/p>\n
The Warrior Food Pantry, which is housed at St. Matthew\u2019s Church, offers students a self-service option for obtaining food. It operates exclusively for ESU students every Tuesday during the academic semester from 2-4 p.m. The pantry is run by retired faculty and staff members of APSCURF, who volunteer their time to ensure the pantry\u2019s success in supporting students\u2019 well-being in collaboration with St. Matthew\u2019s Church.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
