University Human Resources recently donated 379 pounds of root vegetables to the UI Food Pantry in support of faculty, staff, and students in need at the University of Iowa.

Root vegetables such as potatoes, turnips, and carrots are in high demand year-round, but especially at the start of a new semester. Other items available at the pantry may include fresh produce, protein, beans, pasta, canned fruits and vegetables, soup, breakfast items, snacks, and toiletries.

The food pantry is now located on the ground floor of the Iowa Memorial Union (G200 IMU) and is open Tuesday through Friday. Please visit the food pantry webpage for more information.

Donating to the UI Food Pantry is just one way University Human Resources supports the institution's commitment to holistic well-being.
