Does the institution host a food bank, pantry, or equivalent resource focused on alleviating food insecurity, hunger and poverty among students?:
Yes

A brief description of the food bank, pantry, or equivalent resource:
The SHOP was created by a group of students looking to give back to their community by engaging with anti-hunger advocates and increasing hunger awareness and food security. The SHOP is run by volunteers and the food is obtained through donations- monetary and in-kind. Students may come in and pick up food without showing any ID, which makes this service completely confidential. Through a team in excess of 100 volunteers, the organization serves over 200 individuals each month.
