Food Pantry

DU Food Pantry Satellite Location - Craig Hall 

Craig Hall Student Kitchen - First Floor 
The Graduate Student Association within the Graduate School of Social Work has collaborated with the DU Food Pantry to open a satellite location in Craig Hall! National studies show that students in higher education are highly vulnerable to food and housing insecurity. We know this is the case at DU, as well. The DU Food Pantry exists as a free and open resource for anyone with a DU ID number to supplement their weekly food supply in times of need. The Craig Hall location is self-service and open to graduate and undergraduate DU students.

Craig Hall is open M-F from 7am-8pm and Saturday from 7am-4pm.

Questions can be directed to gsswgsa@du.edu or foodpantry@du.edu.

The Thrive team is looking for feedback

Hello from Thrive, In an effort to learn more about student health needs, we are asking students to participate in a short confidential survey. We are hoping that this survey will facilitate communication between students and our team. We’d like to hear more regarding which topics our students would be interested in learning about.

The survey can be found at this link or by using the QR code:
