- Description: The Bulldog Pantry is operated and maintained almost exclusively by Fresno State student volunteers. In November 2007, the pantry opened its doors in response to emergency food needs in the campus area. Almost every Saturday from 9-10:30 a.m. the pantry gives groceries to students and families in need around the community. The pantry currently serves anywhere from 175-200 families each week. The pantry relies 100% on the help of Fresno State volunteers and donors to keep our doors open. Food is purchased each week from the Fresno Community Food Bank and is picked up on weekly. Friday afternoons at 2 p.m. the pantry volunteers pack anywhere from 100-150 bags of food in preparation for distribution the following morning. The pantry tries to be more than just a place for families to get food, but more of a place for families to always feel welcome and comfortable.
