Help Stock the Tampa Campus Feed-A-Bull Pantry

Who We Are  ​​​​ ​​​​​

Feed-A-Bull has distributed more than 170,000 pounds of food to students, with 25,000 pounds in fall 2023 alone! Students' need continues to grow as the cost of groceries, housing and other expenses keep increasing in the Tampa Bay area. With approximately 250 food-insecure USF students visiting the pantry each week, we are regularly challenged to keep enough inventory. We need your help!

What We Do

If a student is hungry, it is hard for them to focus on their studies. To ensure student success, Feed-A-Bull was created to alleviate food hardship and hunger among currently enrolled USF students on the Tampa campus by providing supplemental food assistance, as well as nutrition education and resources related to purchasing and preparing balanced meals on a budget. Feed-A-Bull strives to ensure that students do not have to choose between buying textbooks or buying groceries and that no USF student will go hungry.

Your Impact

Your financial gift will help ensure that the pantry is stocked with a variety of nutritious foods and allow us to operate more efficiently to assist any student in need.

Thanks to the partnership with Feeding Tampa Bay, we are able to purchase food at lower prices. Your donation brings an even more significant impact.

USF Faculty and Staff: You can give online through this site, or complete this payroll deduction form (enter fund #590076, Feed-A-Bull Operating Fund) and email it to fscampaign@usf.edu.

What Your Generosity Will Do

Your support of the Tampa Feed-A-Bull food pantry will help us purchase additional food beyond what we receive from our generous partner Feeding Tampa Bay and possibly replace old shelving and the pantry computer.

We need your help to keep our shelves stocked so our food-insecure students can worry less about their next meal and concentrate on their studies. 

Additionally, non-perishable, non-expired food donations are welcomed all year around, Monday through Friday, 10 a.m.–4 p.m. (with the exception of university holidays) in the Student Service Center SVC 0002. Find more info at usf.edu/feedabull. 

If you are interested in being a part of our on-campus donation drive of non-perishable items during Giving Week, please click here for drop-off locations and times. THANK YOU!
