SHEPHERDSTOWN, WV — For the second consecutive year, Shepherd University’s Ram Pantry received the Mountaineer Food Bank’s Posey Perry Emergency Food Fund Grant.

The Ram Pantry will administer the funds to support its mission to provide food and basic needs to all current Shepherd University students and employees, no matter the year in school or income.

Funds will be used to purchase hot meals and other food items for the pantry.

The grant is supported by Dr. Jennifer Flora, director of the Wellness Center and the Shepherd University Division of Student Affairs.

The Shepherd University Ram Pantry was created in the Fall of 2019, aiming to improve the well-being and health of our Shepherd Family by combating food insecurity.

The pantry is located on the lower level of Boteler Hall.
