Does the institution host a food bank, pantry, or equivalent resource focused on alleviating food insecurity, hunger and poverty among students?:
A brief description of the food bank, pantry, or equivalent resource:
The Montserrat coalition maintains a small food pantry that is available to students in need. https://www.bc.edu/content/bc-web/offices/mission-ministry/sites/montserrat.html
The food pantry is not widely publicized, although high need students who participate in the Montserrat program are made aware of it. Last Christmas, faculty and staff were encouraged to donate gift cards to local grocery stores for the Montserrat program to distribute as needed.
