Food Bank

The Student Food Bank was initiated in the 2006-2007 school year in order to better serve the dietary and nutritional needs of Laurier students. The service makes food deliveries on a 24/7 basis after anonymous requests are made online at http://waterloo.wlusu.com/services/foodbank/foodbankForm.htm . All dietary restrictions are accomodated, and food hampers typically last up to a week or more.

All Laurier students are eligible to use this service. The Student Food Bank is here to ensure all students are able to eat properly despite financial circumstances and other realities of student life, such as the stress of exams or chaotic schedules!

Here’s where you can find us:

  • Fill out a request form if you ever need our services! 
  • FREE PANCAKES will be served from 11:00 am - 1:00 pm on the last Wednesday of every month, in the Hall of Fame!
