Welcome back to Food For All (2025-26)!

I hope you all have had a great first week back and are excited to get involved with our upcoming events! The first Food For All meeting will be on Tuesday, 9/2 at 7pm, and will include a volunteer training/tour of our Wesley pantry and an introduction to the club followed by s’mores! We will meet at the Wesley House, at 526 Jamestown Rd (right across the street from Lemon Hall). Volunteers will be required to attend a training session before signing up for a shift, so make sure to attend if you are able! Future trainings will also be offered in the upcoming weeks based on demand. We hope to see you there!

If you are new to William and Mary or just new to FFA, this is a great time to learn more about what we do! For those that don’t know, Food For All is a club dedicated to improving food access on campus through the operation of two food pantries, located at the Wesley House and Sadler room 127. These pantries are entirely student run by FFA, and are open to students, faculty, and staff facing food insecurity. As a club, we volunteer, hold food drives, provide education and awareness surrounding food insecurity, and participate in advocacy work on campus and beyond. 

How to get involved:

  • General Body Meetings! These will be held every Tuesday from 7-8 in Tucker 222 (except for our first meeting at Wesley) and will include education, service projects, advocacy efforts, and social events. 
  • Volunteer! Wesley and Sadler volunteer shifts will be posted on Givepulse following our first training session. Make sure to attend a training to be able to sign up! Volunteer hours will be verified on givepulse and count towards most volunteer requirements if needed.
    • Wesley pantry and volunteer hours will be Tuesdays and Fridays 11-1 and Thursdays 4:30-6:30. If you are interested in getting involved outside of these times, please let us know!
  • Donate! FFA hosts food drives every semester to benefit the pantries, so look out for upcoming details on how to donate.  
  • Tell your friends! The campus pantry is completely anonymous and open to anyone in the William and Mary community who is facing food insecurity at any capacity. Please do not hesitate to use this resource should you or anyone you know need it. There is no proof of need required. Additional resources to address food insecurity can be found below.
