Online Order Bags are a collaboration between the A.S. Food Bank and partner organizations to make a pre-bagged collection of groceries more readily accessible for students that can not visit our pantry. Bags can be customized for dietary restrictions, family size, specific preferences, etc. Each location has different pick up windows, and students can book a 10 minute pick up appointment to collect their bag. Please be aware that Online Order Bags are a substitute to in-person visits, and count towards your daily visit limit to our pantry. Furthermore, students are unable to order produce for pickup through our partner sites. We highly encourage students to come to our pantry to shop in person if possible!
The following partner site(s) are currently accepting bag orders: Monarch Lounge. To place an order for pickup at the Monarch Lounge, email sa-ussbasicneedsintern@ucsb.edu to learn more. Please check back in periodically for updates from our partner site(s).
Note that starting Fall Quarter 2025, the AS Food Bank will be discontinuing Online Order Bags for pick up at the AS Food Bank pantry. While we’re stepping away from order pick ups at our pantry, we want to reassure you that all the same food and personal care items remain available at our storefront. We warmly invite you to visit us in person, where our team will be here to assist you. We encourage you to speak with one of our staff members or contact us over email if you need items we do not currently have stocked in our pantry. We are committed to responding to the unique and varied needs of all students, and greatly value your feedback. Pick ups will still be available at our partner sites for students that are unable to visit the pantry. Thank you for your understanding.
