Pi Alpha Alpha, the Public
Affairs Honors Society, is collaborating with the Comet Cupboard during its “Don’t Let
Hunger Hide Campaign.” Donations of cereal, canned soup, peanut butter and
canned vegetables are being collected in Green Hall 2.244 through November 22.
The Comet
Cupboard, which opened in October 2012, is a UT Dallas on-campus food pantry
that is available to all currently enrolled students, free of charge. Students
who present their Comet Card can receive up to four items each day. In order to
offer this wide variety of healthy options to the more than 200 students who
have begun using the service each week, the Cupboard relies on monetary
donations and non-perishable food items donated by on-campus supporters and the
outside community.
The
Cupboard is located at MC1.604 (in the basement of the library building), and
is open from noon to 6 p.m. on Monday and Wednesday, from 2 to 7:30 p.m. on
Tuesdays and Thursdays, and 3 pm to 6 pm on Fridays.
