Access Free Essentials on Campus

Purpose

We host seven self-service resource hubs, known as Wellness Exchanges, to assist our campus community in accessing essentials like nonperishable and instant food items, clothing and apparel, personal hygiene items and wellness supplies.

As the cost of living continues to increase, we created this program to address the impact of rising basic needs insecurity on our campus. 

Our Wellness Exchanges are basic needs satellite spaces where students can access free food, clothing, hygiene items, and wellness supplies - at any time, no questions asked.
