Lend-A-Wing Pantry

Verified · October 23, 2026

Lend-A-Wing is a Student Government agency that fights food insecurity on the UNF campus by giving students free, anonymous access to food, hygiene items and school supplies. The pantry stocks canned and boxed foods, fresh fruit and vegetables, microwave meals, breakfast and snack bars, refrigerated and frozen food, personal hygiene products and school supplies. It provides supplemental support — not a household’s full everyday food supply. UNF’s library guide adds that shopping is limited to once per day, three times per week.
