Donations
There are multiple ways to support the UTHSC Campus Cupboard. We welcome all support from our community, as your contributions make our work possible.
To donate items, stop by the pantry during our open hours, or email Jess Guthrie to set up a time to drop the items off. You can find a list of our most needed items at the bottom of this page.
To support the Campus Cupboard financially, you can do so by going to the UTHSC online giving portal and under “select an area of support,” click “select college, school, or preferred fund,” then search for and select “Community Engaged Care Fund.”
We always welcome volunteers to help organize, clean, and stock the pantry shelves. Visit our GivePulse group and sign up for a shift that works for your schedule.
