IceHawks Pantry

Did you know IceHawks Pantry had 1,671 visits & provided 4,967 food items to LSC students during the 2024-2025 school year? That is a lot of food that supported a lot of students!

  • IceHawks Pantry does not have a budget. Rather, it depends on grants and donations to provide food for our students. Your contributions are so appreciated!
  • All currently enrolled students who are facing food insecurity are welcome to use the pantry. Since supplies are limited and we do not offer fresh produce, it is designed to be a supplementary food source for students, not their primary source. We do have lists of
    other food resources in the area available to students.
  • To access the pantry, students should stop by Icehawks Center for Equity & Inclusion.

LSC faculty and staff are invited to participate in the Safe Zone training, aimed at creating LGBTQ+ friendly spaces through increased awareness and ally training.
