You Can Make a Difference Today!

Basic Needs is participating in 1960 Minutes of Giving to raise resources for the Warrior Food Pantry, Clothing Closet, and Emergency Grants. Whether you're an alum, a student, faculty, staff or a community supporter - we'd love your help. Our programs and services work to immediately assist students in meeting their basic needs by providing access to food, clothing, and financial assistance. Your gift can directly assist students' access to critical resources that reduce barriers to success.

1960 Minutes of Giving will take place from 8 a.m. April 30, 2025 to 4:40 p.m. May 1, 2025.

Here's how you can participate to support Basic Needs:

Choose a fund that matters most to you and contribute within the 1,960-minute window:

  • CFA Campus Cares - Food Insecurities: Your donation directly supports our students’ access to food, providing groceries, fresh produce, toiletries and more.
  • CFA Campus Cares - Student Emergencies: Your donation ensures that students in crisis have a safety net to fall back on, whether it’s $250 for car repairs or $196 to cover an unexpected utility bill. This support gives them the peace of mind to continue their studies and focus on their academic and personal growth.
  • Bring non-perishable food items and gently used clothing to the 1960 Minutes of Giving Kickoff on Wednesday, April 30 from 10 a.m. - 1 p.m. at the University Quad.
