Please note, the CBUSU Food Bank will remain open for a limited time during the upcoming Spring/Summer Semester. We will have reduced operating hours. Please check back on our social media soon once we have confirmed our hours for the semester.

During this time, both the Basic Package Program and the Specialized Support Package Program will be temporarily paused. To continue supporting students, we'll ne offering a combined Summer Support Package that brings together items from both programs. This ensures that students still receive meaningful, well-rounded support while our operations adjust for the season.

To be eligible, you must be a current CBU student (enrolled in Spring/Summer courses). The food bank will continue to be accessible to students bi-weekly (once every 14 days).

Thank you for your understanding as we continue to support students throughout the year.
