A brief description of the food bank, pantry, or equivalent resource:

The Seneca Student Federation provides a food bank to full-time Seneca students in need of food bank support. This service is offered at Seneca@York, King, Newnham and Markham campuses.

Students must register at least 24 hours in advance to pick up the food hamper. This service is offered monthly and students can only register once a month. Each month, more than 1200 students can register for the food bank curbside pick-up or in-person on a first come first serve basis.
