College Hunger Survey

Have you ever worried about meals and your access to nutritious food? You're not alone, in fact, one in three college students share this experience (Swipe Out Hunger, 2020). Razorback Food Recovery and the Jane B. Gearhart Full Circle Food Pantry hope to build awareness about what hunger issues on campus look like and how food insecurity impacts those in our community.

Razorback Food Recovery and Full Circle Food Pantry are collaborating to create a gallery walk event containing stories from people facing food insecurity/hunger on campus for the Volunteer Action Center's Envisioning Justice Conference in February 2025. The Volunteer Action Center hosts this annual conference on campus to bring in skilled professionals to educate on injustices/challenges experienced in our surrounding community.

What's your experience with hunger in college? Fill out this short survey (Spanish version available through the link) about your experiences. Your story will be anonymously shared.
