About us:
Oh SNAP! Student Food Programs is a student-driven initiative. Our mission is to increase access to nutritious and culturally appropriate food for all Cal Poly Humboldt students by engaging in campus and community partnerships and by raising awareness of food insecurity among our peers.
We aim to provide our fellow students with basic necessities and connections to community resources. Our services currently include a campus food pantry, a weekly stand with free fresh fruits and vegetables (during the growing season), CalFresh application assistance, connections to other local food resources, and outreach events.
We provide CalFresh assistance to anyone who needs it, however our pantry and food redistribution services are for matriculated Cal Poly Humboldt students only. If you have questions about this please contact ohsnap@humboldt.edu.

POP UP THRIFT SHOP
Introducing OH SNAP’s very own thrift shop! We started a Pop–Up Thrift Store to help students access affordable items and to reduce waste. We gather donated items during move-out in the spring. All money raised goes to support the pantry, farm stand, and emergency housing fund. Follow @humboldtohsnap on Instagram to stay updated.
