Marshall University Food Pantry



Huntington's newest food pantry can be found on the campus of Marshall University.

"A lot of students just don't have enough to make ends meet," said Tiffany Tatum with the Huntington Area Food Bank. "They're tying to pay tuition and take care of their families."

Marshall's food pantry will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesdays and Fridays. Students will need to sign in and bring their ID.

West Virginia State, located in Institute, has a pantry that will celebrate its one-year anniversary in March.


West Virginia University's pantry, known as "The Rack," serves more than 100 students a month. It opened in the fall of 2010.
