Individual & Family Services - Portland, Oregon, United States
The mission of the PSU Food Pantry is to be a resource for currently enrolled Portland State University students to acquire food items on a regular basis in a welcoming, inclusive, dignified environment. The PSU Food Pantry was started by students in 2012 as a ‘take what you need' shelf in the student government office (Associated Students of Portland State University) to serve the ever-growing food insecure population of students on campus. The Pantry became a student operated service July 1, 2015. We have become a partner agency of Oregon Food Bank, grown into a new location including storage and an office, and expanded services and staffing. The PSU Food Pantry continues to be a service truly led by students, for students.
