2nd Annual EPIPHANY FOOD DRIVE

United Campus Ministry is inviting your congregation to a unique service opportunity to celebrate

Epiphany by hosting a food drive addressing food insecurity on the University of Houston campus. United

Campus Ministry provides a free weekly food and basic needs pantry addressing food insecurity for

undergraduate and graduate students. Last year, we had over 1974 pantry visits, with 63% of those

students being recurring participants.

The Pocket Pantry not only provides items to address food insecurity and basic needs, but it is also an

avenue by which students can build authentic relationships with the ministry and experience the presence

of Christ through our service.
