University of Pittsburgh
Welcome Panthers!

About the program

At the end of the spring semester, students can donate their excess dining dollars by going to Market To Go and making a purchase. At the register, they will have the option to donate $1, which will be used to stock the Pitt Pantry on campus.

Program Roots

This program is in strong partnership with University of Pittsburgh Housing and Sodexo. The Swipe Out Hunger team at University of Pittsburgh aims to grow its presence on Pitt's campus, encourage students to make donations to support their peers, provide more nutritious food options at the Pitt Pantry and end the stigma around using food assistance.
