Staff Weeks: Volunteer at the Jane B. Gearhart Full Circle Campus Food Pantry
Photo Submitted

Did you know that the U of A has operated an on-campus food pantry for over 11 years? Over the last months, the Jane B. Gearhart Full Circle has served over 1,400 household members monthly. Please consider joining Full Circle Food Pantry in helping fill orders during finals week and before classes start in Spring 2023. 

Full Circle Food Pantry is led by nine student leaders and over 60 volunteers a semester. We are looking for extra hands during the weeks of Dec. 12, 2022, and Jan. 9, 2023, to ensure students can study for their finals, complete projects and gain rest during the break.   

Please feel free to sign up on your own or encourage others in your department to sign up together to cover a whole shift! This is a great way to give back to the Razorback community and learn more about a campus resource providing food and more to any individual associated with the U of A. Volunteers will help fill orders, greet clients and more.  

First time volunteering with Full Circle? We will provide you with a detailed PowerPoint with everything you need to know prior to your shift and do in-person training upon arrival.
