Lion’s Pantry Ambassadors

About Us

The Lion’s Pantry Ambassadors are passionate students committed to maintaining The Lion’s Pantry services while advocating for students’ basic needs so that one day, no student will need The Lion’s Pantry. As a recognized student organization at Penn State, we host events, hold open hours, and stop the stigma associated with food insecurity. We would love for you to join us!

Meetings

Meetings are held at 6 p.m. on Wednesday evenings in 118 Thomas Bldg. Any location or time changes are announced via social media and the organization’s group messaging account. Reach out to thelionspantry@psu.edu if you are interested in getting involved!
