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:

Arnie’s Cupboard is sponsored by the Office of Student Affairs. The purpose of Arnie’s Cupboard is to supplement the food supply for any UMass Dartmouth students/faculty/staff who may be experiencing food insecurity.

College students who experience food insecurity often struggle to support themselves while working, attending classes, and dealing with other life issues. Arnie’s Cupboard hopes to minimize food insecurity while UMass Dartmouth students work toward completing their education.
