Welcome to Fall 2026
Welcome to THRIVE Mart — your on‑campus hub for free, fresh, and accessible groceries!
We partner with community organizations to make sure students have reliable access to nutritious food. All items are available while supplies last, and our dates and times may shift each semester, so be sure to check back regularly for updates.
Whether you’re stocking up for the month or just grabbing a few essentials, THRIVE Mart is here to support your well‑being and help you thrive.
The Basic Needs THRIVE Resource Center is pleased to share an update to your weekly on‑campus food support. Moving forward, all THRIVE Mart items will be included in a single, convenient weekly food bundle. This food support will be available for one visit per day on a first‑come, first‑served basis.
