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 food pantry at MGH IHP is available for both students and employees in need. It is located on the 4th floor of Building 36 and was chosen because it is easily accessible and in a high-traffic area to help remove any stigma attached to using it. The self-service pantry, which is staffed by volunteers, is stocked with jars of peanut butter, boxes of pasta, cans of tuna and soup, bags of beans, and personal care products such as deodorant and shampoo. A food drive was also conducted to help stock the pantry.
