University of Southern Mississippi
Welcome Golden Eagles!

About the program

At the beginning of each fall and spring semester, students can donate up to two swipes at The Fresh. Swipes are then loaded onto students’ accounts by the Eagles Nest pantry.

Are you experiencing food insecurity on campus? Students can visit Eagles Nest to meet with a staff person and inquire about receiving swipes. Check out our Campus Resources section below for more information about the Eagles Nest Food Pantry.
