About the program

Each semester, Sodexo donates 425 meals to a meal swipe fund. Meal swipes are then distributed to students in blocks of 25 meals when they apply through the The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) Cares program in the Dean of Students office.

Program Roots

In Fall 2019, Sodexo formed a partnership with Swipe to pilot Meal Swipe Banks at 14 campuses in the Spring 2020 semester. The program grew, and Sodexo committed to deploying 100+ Swipe Out Hunger programs over the 2021 calendar year. Sodexo contributes one meal per each mandatory meal plan purchased during the academic year.
