Pirate Pantry was established in fall 2018. There are different sections labeled in the pantry for easy access to items.
A donation bin in the Academic Plaza had a list of suggested pantry items glued to it.
The pantry has a dry erase board for students to write items they would like to get. These suggestions are taken into consideration by the pantry committee.
The donation bin at Norrington Center has donations placed around it because they could not fit in the bin.

Park Pirate Pantry had a donation dive from the Nov. 1-19. This is an event that is typically held at least once a year. Donation bins were placed in five different locations on campus: Milsap Foyer, the Academic Plaza, Norrington Center, Mackay Hall and Thompson Commons. Food items, non-food items and monetary donations were encouraged during the drive. Even though the donation drive has ended for the semester, the pantry still welcomes donations. There is a bin right in front of the pantry in Labor Hall where donations can be dropped off. Also, monetary donations can be submitted at advancing.park.edu/giving/pirate-pantry-donate/.
