The program is a resource for all University of Washington Bothell students who are facing food insecurity. Use of the pantry is anonymous, and only food that is taken is recorded.<\/p>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\tAre you or one of your fellow students facing food insecurity? Please visit the Husky Pantry in the Husky Village Community Center, Monday &#8211; Friday from 8 a.m. &#8211; 5 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday, noon &#8211; 6 p.m. Husky Pantry is a confidential service.

He saw a need for assistance and came forward,&rdquo; said Katie Horowitz, director of <a href=\"\/housing\">residential life and student conduct<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tEdwards served as a residential adviser and director of student advocacy. He encountered an increasing number of students who needed help.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&ldquo;I came across quite a few students who either were sleeping in the library because they had no place to go, dealing with food insecurity, or in need of other resources that were more long term,&rdquo; said Edwards,<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&ldquo;I began to realize through personal experience and research that students dealing with food insecurity was an underlying issue on college campuses throughout the United States. This literally kept me up at night, and I felt the need to work toward implementing a pantry,&rdquo; said Edwards, who graduated with a master&rsquo;s in cultural studies in 2013.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tEdwards started the program with a goal of providing nonperishable items along with community resources to help students get back on their feet.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/husky-pantry-picture-final--1-.jpg\" alt=\"Husky pantry shelves\" class=\"wp-image-28498\"><\/figure>\n<p>\n\t&ldquo;Students want healthy food,&rdquo; said Horowitz.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tLocated in the kitchen of the Community Center at Husky Village, Husky Pantry is stocked with food, first aid and resource packets. A student can pick up folders, bottles of water, peanut butter, cans of vegetables, jars of pasta sauce and a variety of instant noodles.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThe food drive ends March 17.
