To visit SNAC, you must be a USU student, staff, or faculty member. You are not allowed to use the pantry if you are an alum.
Patrons are allowed to visit SNAC once per week as needed.
Upon entry, you are required to swipe your USU ID. This allows us to track information for reporting and funding purposes and is not used to identify individual patrons.
Please only take one of each item unless otherwise specified.
Please do not stockpile food.
Do not sell food or other items you receive from the pantry.
The food here can be expired; please visit the Utah Food Bank website to learn more about expired food.
If you have dependent children for whom you are also seeking food, we ask that you attend the Cache Community Food Pantry. They will be able to assist based on family size rather than USU A#.
The bread and pastries are from local bakeries and are at least a day old. This bread contains little to no preservatives, like the kind you would find at the grocery store, so we suggest ensuring there is no mold, freezing it in portions, and taking it out of the freezer as needed.
As SNAC patrons, you will be sent a survey each semester and emails occasionally.
Please be courteous to all SNAC staff, volunteers, and patrons through respectful language, waiting for your turn in line and the pantry (no cutting), and respecting the space between patrons.
If you need long-term assistance, we suggest applying for the Supplemental Nutrition Access Program or SNAP. SNAC can help with this; ask us how.
By using the pantry, you agree to all these terms including:
I acknowledge that the food I receive from the Student Nutrition Access Center is donated, sorted, and packaged by volunteers.
I also recognize that some foods may be present that are past their expiration date, and it is my choice whether to use them or not. Therefore, I release the Student Nutrition Access Center, its volunteers, community partners, and any donor from any claim associated with the products provided to me.
Selling food or other items you receive from the pantry will result in being suspended or banned from using the pantry.
