University of Nevada – Reno

About the program

During designated periods through the semester, students can donate swipes at tables in dining halls. Students will fill out a form with their student ID information that is sent to the dining department, who then transfers meal swipes from their account. Meal swipes are then distributed upon student request. Students experiencing food insecurity may request for meal swipes if they have visited the resource pantry at least twice during the semester. Students may request meal swipes up to 3 times a semester.

Are you experiencing food insecurity on campus? Reach out to Pack Provisions at packprovisions@asun.unr.edu.
