Food Access

Through generous donations from both the Petrie and Friedlander Foundations and the Lawrence N. Field Center for Entrepreneurship COVID-19 Revitalization Project, Baruch College is able to offer students who face food insecurity the following resources:

COVID-19 Revitalization Project Fund

The COVID-19 Revitalization Project, an inaugural program sponsored by the Lawrence N. Field Center for Entrepreneurship through a grant from the Mitsubishi Financial Group, will provide financial support in the form of gift card purchases to NYC-based, minority-owned, small businesses providing essential goods and services; these businesses experienced lost revenues due to COVID-19. The gift cards will then be provided to Baruch College students also belonging to highly impacted communities who are experiencing economic insecurities or hardships as a result of the pandemic.  In order to apply for a gift card, students must be currently enrolled and meet the following criteria:

  • Have matriculated and completed at least 30 credits at the College by submission of an application for assistance
  • Provide a statement detailing the economic insecurity or hardship and how the support provided by this program will help
  • Complete an online application and agree to an interview with the Office of the Dean of Students​

Grab & Go Bags

In an effort to prevent students facing immediate hunger from going unfed (those who have not eaten for an extended period of time; those experiencing dizziness or dehydration from lack of eating; or those who skipped recent meals because of lack of funds, etc.), we have made available a “Grab & Go” bag. This bag includes breakfast, lunch and dinner, and is designed to provide a student in need with nutrition to get him or her through a day.

Request a Grab & Go bag at the Student Health Center.

Hot Lunch To Go

Due to the pandemic and campus closing, we are unable to continue our Hot Lunch To Go initiative. We hope to resume this program upon our return to campus.

Pop Up Pantry

Because of the pandemic, there is a temporary pause on this program. It will be restarted when students return to campus.

Off-Campus Resources

  • The Met Council
  • Food Bank of NYC
  • New York Cares: Winter Coats
