Our Mission
The ASI Food Pantry exists to provide food and basic necessities
to Sac State students with financial hardships and
low food security, at no cost. In addition to helping
alleviate hunger within our student community, the ASI Food
Pantry aims to decrease the negative impact that
low food security has on the academic success of our
students.
Eligibility, First-Timers
Currently enrolled Sac State students can shop
at the ASI Food Pantry or place a locker
order once per week.
At your first visit, you will need to bring your
physical OneCard and complete our New User
Registration Form, which helps us better understand your
needs and provide referrals to other great campus resources.

Toiletry Kit Distribution [April 21st - 30th]
BACKGROUND:
Hearing from students surveyed as part of the ASI Food Pantry’s
annual focus groups, we found that a significant number of weekly
users struggle with purchasing hygiene products such as shampoos,
conditioner, soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, and deodorant. To
ease this burden, we will be offering a toiletry kit for pick-up
at the end of Spring Semester.
HOW TO GET A FREE TOILETRY KIT:
Sign-up using our link and follow
the instructions carefully.
Period Panties [April 21st - 30th]
BACKGROUND:
In April 2023, the ASI Food Pantry launched a pilot
program to provide free reusable menstrual product to Sac State
students. This pilot program was made possible by Student Affairs
grant funding. Our staff taught 286 students how to use, clean,
and store the products through in-person demos, tabling events,
and at the
2023 Sac State Earth Day
Sustainability Fair.
In June 2023, we applied for new funding to buy 290 period
panties for distribution and after a brief supply chain shipping
delay, these are now available for Sac State students!
PARTNERSHIPS:
We buy our period panties from Saalt, a certified
B-corp. Learn more about Saalt’s educational
materials and information about their products and
mission here.
Grant funding for this service came from
University Enterprises Inc. We are grateful to promote
menstrual equity and environmental sustainability in partnership
with UEI.
