The ASI Food Pantry exists to provide food and basic necessities to Sac State students with financial hardships or food insecurity, at no cost. In addition to helping alleviate hunger within our student community, the ASI Food Pantry aims to decrease the impact that food insecurities have on the academic success of our students.

The ASI Food Pantry can provide food and toiletries for Sac State students with financial hardships who show a valid student OneCard. Students are allowed to come once a week and take a variety of items based on the point system below.

The health and safety of our community is most important and as a result, the ASI Food Pantry will be adapting to new practices and adjusted hours until further notice. All items will be pre-bagged and distributed. We will not be using the point system during this time.
