feeddodu是一个学生参与项目 & 注册服务 initiative that addresses food insecurity on campus by connecting Monarchs to a network of food resources, education, and support.
什么是粮食不安全?
Food insecurity can affect students' ability to be successful in college and focus on completing their degree programs. FeedODU seeks to ensure that every Monarch can get the most out of their education by connecting students who are experiencing food insecurity to resources both on and off campus.
ODU also offers a free on-campus food pantry for currently enrolled students: The 君主储藏室. This resource not only provides students with access to food and toiletries, but it also serves as an opportunity for experiential learning, as the 君主储藏室 is staffed each week by student workers and student volunteers.
有关资源的更多信息, 包括君主储藏室, and information regarding how you can get involved / help support these initiatives, 请参阅下文. 谢谢你帮助我们# feeddodu!
