Staff Week in December at Full Circle Food Pantry
Full Circle Food Pantry green logo
Staff and faculty: Volunteer at the Jane B. Gearhart Full Circle Food Pantry on campus!
Did you know that the University of Arkansas operates a student-led food pantry that serves over 1,200 clients monthly? Your food pantry reaches staff, students and faculty with the help of more than 70 volunteers semesterly. Please consider joining Full Circle Food Pantry to help fill orders while our student leadership and volunteers take this time to prepare for their finals.
Full Circle Food Pantry is looking for extra help from staff and faculty during the week of Dec. 11 so our student team can fully focus on their academics.
Please feel free to sign up on your own or encourage others in your department to sign up together to cover a whole shift! This is a great way to give back to the Razorback community and learn more about a campus resource providing food and more to any individual associated with the University of Arkansas. Volunteers will help fill orders, greet clients, and more.
First time volunteering with Full Circle? We will provide you with a detailed PowerPoint with everything you need to know prior to your shift and do in-person training upon arrival.
Those interested in volunteering for the entirety of the semester, please email pantry3@uark.edu or visit our HogSync site.
