Staff and Faculty: Volunteer at the Jane B. Gearhart Full Circle Food Pantry! 

Did you know the U of A has a student-led, student-operated food pantry? Full Circle Food Pantry is part of the Center for Community Engagement's student-led organization, the Volunteer Action Center. 

Full Circle Food Pantry is looking for extra help from staff and faculty the weeks of Aug. 17 and 24. 

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. Volunteers will help fulfill orders, greet clients and assist in organizing inventory.  

First time volunteering with Full Circle? We will provide you with a detailed PowerPoint training with everything you need to know prior to your shift and host in-person training upon arrival.
