Union Pantry Update

During Semester 2 the Union Pantry form will open on Friday at 12pm and close Monday 12pm. There is no limit on the number of people who can sign up. Please only fill out the form once.

After the form closes, 60 people who have signed up will be randomly selected for each Union Pantry session. All students who are selected will receive an email informing them their Union Pantry registration was successful and of which session they can attend. Those who were not selected will receive an email informing them their registration for Union Pantry was unsuccessful.

If you are struggling financially ANUSA has other food programs and financial assistance grants available to students. You can also email sa.assistance@anu.edu.au to book an appointment with our Student Assistance team to discuss how ANUSA can best support you.
