Food Resources for Students

It’s hard to be academically successful when you are hungry. 

We have food resources to help.

Food for Thought Food Pantry

Food For Thought provides nonperishable food items and personal hygiene products to students in need.

All current UND students are welcome to visit our new Food for Thought Food Pantry, located on the first floor of the Memorial Union in Room 138. 

Contribute to the Food Pantry

Food Pantry Hours

Monday - Friday
8 a.m. - 4 p.m.

If no one is in the food pantry when you arrive, please call 701.777.4200 or come to the Student Involvement/Student Government Office, Memorial Union Suite 144, to gain access.

Swipe it Forward Program

Food security on campuses is a growing concern nationwide. Various studies have shown estimates putting students between 33 to 51 percent food insecure. University of North Dakota students are not exempt from food security concerns.

To address campus food insecurity, the University of North Dakota has implemented the Swipe it Forward meal donation program. Students with a current UND meal plan can donate a portion of their unused guest meals or dining dollars to help hungry classmates.

How can I Swipe it Forward?

  1. Log into your Housing Self Service.
  2. At the top of the Housing Self-Service page, select "Application and Forms." In the drop down menu select the application Dining Plan – Swipe It Forward
  3. You will be asked to enter information about the amount of Dining Dollars and/or Guest Meals you would like to donate.

How do I access donated meals?

Students in need, can contact the Community Standards & Care Network Office by phone 701.777.2664 or by email UND.communitystandards@UND.edu to get meal passes for use in UND dining centers.
