ULethbridge launches emergency food program for students

The University of Lethbridge’s Residence Life team has created the Resident Emergency Food Fund to provide students living in residence with emergency access to food. The fund is supported by a grant from the Food for Thought committee, which runs several other initiatives on campus including a food-sharing hub and free fresh produce events. Eligible students in need will be able to access short-term supports through vouchers and grocery cards, as well as support for the long-term, including resources and referrals. ULethbridge Campus Life Housing Coordinator Shanna Brown said that the program is available to all residents in need, regardless of year or income.
