Food insecurity can be experienced anywhere.\u00a0 <\/strong>Food insecurity is defined as: \u201cThe limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate foods, including involuntarily cutting back on meals and food portions or not knowing the source of the next meal.\u201d (Long Island Cares, 2020)<\/p>\n

The Knights Table Pantry was established in the fall of 2018 as part of Queens College\u2019s commitment to reduce food insecurity among its student population.\u00a0 The Knights Table Food Pantry, overseen by the Office of Student Development and Leadership<\/a> (OSDL) at Queens College is dedicated to the success of all our students in our CUNY system. Our mission is to assist and empower all Queens College\/CUNY students by providing members of our community here at Queens College and in other CUNY schools with essential and basic needs at no cost.<\/p>\n

In fall of 2024, the Knights Table expanded to the Armory to better serve our students.\u00a0 The Knights Armory is a professional closet that allows students who need to obtain business casual and business professional attire for free. The mission of the Knights Armory is to increase student\u2019s confidence when going for interviews and to help break down barriers so they can reach their full potential. Making students’ feel confident as they navigate through their journey as professionals.<\/p>\n

This is a free resource for current Queens College and CUNY Students only\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
