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 Insecurity Initiative is run through Calvin's Center for Intercultural Student Development. Every month (sometimes twice a month), we will host a food pantry. Students may sign up and order one of six pre-made bags. We also distribute donated meal card swipes that are collected through Swipe Out Hunger - a program in which faculty, staff or students can donate unused meal card swipes. Any Calvin student can access food bags or swipes.
