At EKU, over 300 student visits are made each month to the Colonel’s Cupboard, our on-campus food pantry that provides meals, hygiene items, and everyday essentials to students in need.

Just $5, the cost of your daily coffee, can provide needed meals for a student today. By giving $250, you will cover the need for an entire week at the food pantry.

Your gift helps ensure students can focus on their education — not where their next meal is coming from.

Will you help us feed students in need with your Giving Day gift to the Colonel's Cupboard?
