The Lion's Pantry at Penn State Hazleton helps students in need focus on their education instead of wondering where their next meal might come from.
Students facing food insecurity who are in need of food or supplies can access non-perishable foods and hygiene products from the pantry, located on the second floor of the campus Health Center, 704 West Halls. Services are offered year-round to current Penn State Hazleton students.
To access the Lion's Pantry, please email or call Campus Nurse Laura Gerth-Makarczyk or Director of Student Services and Engagement Tracy Garnick.
Make a difference
The Lion's Pantry is able to carry out its mission thanks to generous contributions from our campus community, the Penn State Hazleton Alumni Society and the Penn State Hazleton Alumni Chapter. If you'd like to donate, contact Director of Student Services and Engagement Tracy Garnick for details.
