3 Ways to Use & Support the Bear Pantry during Flu Season

January 19, 2022 by Kylie J. Mignone

The cold, dry air may weaken immune responses and encourage the spread of viruses; however, here are three contactless ways to support or utilize the pantry during the winter months.  

1. Online Ordering for Easy Access  

At the Bear Pantry, we offer two methods for shopping: in-person and online ordering  

If you aren’t feeling well but are still in need of items from the pantry, fill out this form to place an online order and schedule a pick-up time. 

You can even message our pantry number (417-986-1915) to let us know when you arrive, and a staff member will bring your items to the parking lot outside of University Hall for a simple and safe experience.  

2. Check out our Amazon Wishlist 

Interested in donating to the Bear Pantry, but stuck at home in quarantine? Pick an item from our Amazon Wishlist to purchase and donate. This simple action can easily take an item from your cart to the pantry shelves.  

3. Interact with the Bear Pantry on our social media platforms  

Stay up to date with the latest news at the Bear Pantry and Center for Community Engagement by following along on our Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter pages. Share posts and links from our pages with friends, fellow students, faculty, or staff to spread the word about the pantry.
