Ithaca College realizes that these difficult times have made it challenging for our community members to make ends meet and to access nutritious food.  To help with that, we have come up with a way to keep the On-Campus Food Pantry open, accessible, and as safe as possible.

The pantry will remain accessible during the hours the Campus Center is open Tuesdays through Sundays. The pantry will be closed on Mondays to allow us time to restock and do a thorough cleaning of the space.  Right now the Campus Center open hours are Monday – Friday from 8am – 7pm and Saturday and Sunday from 10am – 7pm.
