Hive Supply Food Shelf Hours

The Hive Supply is our on-campus food shelf, created to support students with free access to groceries, hygiene items, and household essentials. Whether you need a quick snack, a few pantry staples, or some self-care supplies, the Hive is here to help you thrive. Stop by, check it out, and take what you need—no questions asked. Because when one bee is supported, the whole hive gets stronger! Inventory varies based on time of year and donations, and it is free to students in need. You may visit once per week and collect a maximum of 15 items per visit. Be sure to bring your Stinger ID!

Grab and Go Bags

We have pre-packed brown paper bags with items from the Hive Supply as a grab-and-go option. Students are able to pick a bag of food items on campus at various locations on Main Campus and the Heintz Center.
