A brief description of the food bank, pantry, or equivalent resource:
Replenish is the newly improved food resource for all students who face financial obligations/struggles that compromise their food access.
Replenish, provides food and personal care items to meet the short-term challenges that students may face when unable to purchase such items. Obtaining an adequate food supply is often a major component of financial stress and research has proven that inadequate nutrition decreases academic performance.
