Ho‘ai Food and Goods Pantry

Food Pantry donations

Our Ho‘ai Food & Goods Pantry is here to ensure all students are able to access food and other essentials by providing a place where our students can shop, for free, for the things they need for themselves and their household. Through a partnership with the Hawaiʻi FoodBank- Kauaʻi Branch, we are able to offer a variety of canned, refrigerated, and frozen foods. We also carry items such as clothing, household and hygiene items, menstrual products, baby diapers/wipes and formula, and other goods as available through donations and grant funding.
