Washington University in St. Louis | Welcome Bears! - Swipe Out Hunger: Student Hunger is Real

About the program

During a designated drive period at the end of each semester, students can use leftover meal points to purchase nonperishable items at Paws & Go, such as canned food, peanut butter, and boxed items, and drop them in the blue bins.

If you are a Wash U student seeking supportive resources, check out the campus Resource Guide and check out our Campus Resources section below for more information about how to get connected with the Center for Diversity and Inclusion.
