The Rider Resource Pantry was established in 2018 to help students fighting food insecurity. We offer nonperishable food, personal hygiene items, school supplies, and more. We are excited to be partnered with Mercer Street Friends, who provides us with shelf stable items, as well as fresh and frozen foods.
How to Access the Pantry
All visitors must register through PantrySoft before visiting. You can make online orders and pick up at a time most convenient for you, or you can walk-in anytime during open hours and shop in person.
