Spring Staff Week at Full Circle Food Pantry

Full Circle Food Pantry is looking for extra help from staff and faculty during the week of May 6.
Did you know that the U of A operates a student-led food pantry that serves over 1,200 clients monthly? Your food pantry reaches staff, students and employees with the help of more than 70 volunteers semesterly. Please consider joining the Full Circle Food Pantry to help fill orders while our student leadership and volunteers take this time to prepare for their spring finals.
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 U of A. 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.
We will also be recruiting staff and faculty to assist during summer pantry hours and will have a Newswire run with that information soon!
