Montgomery Essential Needs

After closing for the month of July to deep clean and re-organize, we're ready to open! We will be open before school begins from August 10th-19th, every Monday - Wednesday. See you there Broncos!

Summer Break Notice: We’re taking the month of July to restock and get ready for a fantastic new school year! Our pantry will be closed during this time, but we can’t wait to see you in August. Keep an eye on our page for our updated schedule and hours. See you soon!

Your surplus garden harvest can make a direct impact on campus. Many Western Michigan University students experience food insecurity and lack access to fresh fruits and vegetables. You can support your community by sharing your extra produce.

Follow these simple guidelines from the flyer to prepare your donation:

Only share high quality, fresh produce that you would eat yourself.

Wash away all dirt and debris from your items before you arrive.

Reach out to the pantry team to confirm current drop off hours and specific handling requests.

Bring your extra produce directly to the Bronco Food Pantry on campus. Contact the staff at [email protected] or call (269) 387-0706 with any questions.

We are closed today due to a campus leak. We will reopen on June 2nd at 11 AM. Thank you for your patience and cooperation. Stay tuned for further updates.

Summer is officially here. Note these changes for your next visit.

The Ministries of Delight RSO visited the Bronco Food Pantry to help process a 3,000 Ib delivery.
This partnership ensures our shelves remain stocked for students in need. Huge thanks to their team for the heavy lifting and dedication to our campus community.
