USC Student Basic Needs operates the Pop-Up Trojan Food Pantry in TCC 425A. You can learn more about access using the below information, or emailing basicneeds@usc.edu with any questions.
New Trojan Food Pantry Process:
In order to access the Trojan Food Pantry, we require students to complete the following intake form once per semester. Students will be responsible for showing a screenshot of the completed intake form at each Trojan Food Pantry visit. Additionally, we are using a new swipe system, which requires your physical USCard at every visit. Due to this new process, we will no longer be able to accommodate students picking up groceries on behalf of their friends.
Eligibility Requirements:
Students who are currently enrolled in Fall 2023 courses at USC, do not possess a dining hall meal plan*, and are experiencing food insecurity will be provided with a limited number of groceries each week.
- *If you possess a meal plan and have 20 or less meals remaining, you may be considered for the Trojan Food Pantry.
Location:
The Pop-Up Trojan Food Pantry currently operates out of Tutor Campus Center (TCC) 425A. To get to this location, take the elevator next to Seeds Marketplace up the to fourth floor. Once you exit the elevator you will make a right and walk down to the end of the hall until you reach Suite 425. Please line up outside the door and one of our staff members will let you know when it is your turn.
Fall 2023 Operation:
- August 29, 2023 – November 29, 2023
- Open Tuesdays & Wednesdays from 2PM-4:30PM
We also encourage students to utilize community resources.
