Did you know GW has a student-run food pantry to support members of the GW community with food, kitchen appliances, hygiene products, and even interview attire? You can request access to the store via this app, and there are no background checks or requirements to become a shopper– the store just asks that shoppers be mindful of others when shopping and understand that the Store is prioritized for individuals experiencing food insecurity.
The Store has two locations, District House B Level in Foggy Bottom (canned goods as well as produce, dairy, and vegan food items) and West Hall B202 on the Vern (canned goods, pasta, dry goods). Both locations are open 7am-11pm, seven days a week. The Foggy Bottom location is closed during stocking times on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays from 11am to 1pm, however students will be notified after food delivery and stocking has been completed.
Spread the word and remember to be respectful of others when using The Store. If you’d like to help out, you can fill out this interest form to volunteer with The Store, or set up a donation of non-perishable food, school supplies, interview attire, and personal hygiene products by emailing gwstore@gmail.com
