Service Updates
THE GUELPH STUDENT FOODBANK IS CURRENTLY AT FULL CAPACITY FOR THE FALL SEMESTER.
STUDENTS EXPERIENCING A FOOD EMERGENCY ARE ENCOURAGED TO REVIEW THE GUELPH FOOD ACCESS GUIDE HERE.
In an effort to combat hunger and poverty on campus, the Guelph Student FoodBank provides undergraduate and graduate University of Guelph students access to emergency food, anti-poverty resources, and referrals to other food security, anti-poverty and financial assistance groups. This service is always confidential.
What We Are: The Guelph Student FoodBank, started and funded by students, began in the Fall of 2004. Since then we have seen the scope of our work increase dramatically as the real and often hidden issues of hunger and impoverishment become more evident. With more than 20% of students facing food insecurity, the need for the Guelph Student FoodBank couldn’t be greater.
Hours of Operation
The GSFB operates Monday - Wednesday 12 - 6 pm & Thursday 12 - 3 pm
. The service is available by appointment only for registered visitors. Students experiencing a food emergency are encouraged to review the resources listed here.
Eligibility
UofG students who have paid the Foodbank fee as part of their current semesterly tuition are eligible to access the FoodBank. The Guelph Student FoodBank provides a maximum of 30 items per registered UofG student per month; visits are limited to 2 per month.
