Service Projects
Staff Advisory Committee Members will collaborate with students for the Billiken Bounty Food Pantry - an on-campus food pantry at Saint Louis University run by students for students.
Contact sac@slu.edu and billikenbounty@slu.edu if you want to help coordinate donations, volunteer, or sponsor a donation bin in your campus building.
This is a subcommittee of the SAC Committee for Service. Contact Committee Chair Kat Dortch with questions at kathryn.dortch@slu.edu.
Physical donations can be dropped off in the pantry during open hours. Here are a few ideas of what to donate:
- Shelf-stable milks (i.e. almond milks)
- Pasta noodles (i.e. spaghetti, penne)
- Rice
- Pasta sauce
- Ready-made meals (i.e. ravioli, easy mac)
- Toiletries (i.e. toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, menstrual products)
- School supplies (i.e. pencils, pens, notebooks)
