The University of Mississippi Food Bank, founded in 2013, addresses food insecurity among students and employees on the Ole Miss campus. It is run by a student committee with assistance from volunteers, reflecting a student-led, volunteer-driven operation. The organization provides free, nutritious food items and hygiene products to members of the Ole Miss community in a discreet manner, with an explicit aim to reduce hunger and poverty on campus. Its services target students and staff who may experience food insecurity, offering essential items at no cost. Positioned within philanthropic fundraising services, the operation is based in Mississippi, United States, and relies on student leadership and voluntary support rather than full-time staff.
