The Backpack Program: Marquette's Student Food Pantry

Located in Mashuda Hall, the Backpack Program provides Marquette students (including law students) experiencing food insecurity with groceries and personal products, no questions asked. Students can come in and shop once a week for fresh produce, frozen meats and non-perishable items. Personal and cleaning products are provided through an online survey, please contact backpackprogram@marquette.edu for the link.
