VUWSA and Te Herenga Waka have partnered together to deliver the Community Pantry – a free food parcel service. 

The Community Pantry gives out emergency food parcels to students who need them throughout the year. If you are currently experiencing financial hardship and cannot afford groceries, this is the service for you.

To get a Community Pantry food parcel visit the VUWSA Kelburn office or the Te Aro library; and fill out a Community Pantry form. 

Please be aware that if you are using the Community Pantry regularly we will link you with the wonderful team at Student Finance who can either assist you in budgeting or help you apply through the University for more assistance. You can only access Community Pantry once every two months.

Pick up locations:

  • VUWSA Kelburn Reception (Student Union Building)

    • 9am - 4pm, Monday - Friday
