It truly takes a village to fight food insecurity. The Food Service Systems II class stepped in to support the Jaguar N.E.S.T., gaining hands-on experience while helping prepare food for fellow Jaguars. This is what learning, service, and community look like in action.
Every helping hand makes a difference. Together, we are feeding students and building a stronger campus community.

Thank you for standing with the Jaguar N.E.S.T.
With your generosity, we are able to provide meals, essential items, and support to students across Southern University. Your contributions are helping us fight food insecurity and create a campus where every student has access to the resources they need to succeed.
This work is bigger than food. It is about dignity, opportunity, and student success.
We are grateful for every donor, partner, volunteer, and advocate who continues to pour into this mission.
Food Access is the Standard at Southern University.
Today at the Jaguar N.E.S.T., we are preparing hearty homemade Yakamein, crisp cucumber tomato salad, and fresh wraps made with care. Every ingredient is chopped, mixed, portioned, and packaged with purpose.
This is more than a meal. This is access. This is dignity. This is what it looks like when a university makes food security the standard.
We are proud to nourish our students with balanced, flavorful options that support wellness and academic success.
Food access matters. Community matters. Jaguars take care of Jaguars.
Thank you to the Alpha Tau Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated and our dedicated community volunteers for showing up and supporting the Jaguar N.E.S.T. Your time, energy, and commitment help us continue addressing food insecurity and ensuring that students have access to the resources they need to succeed. We are grateful for your partnership and your heart for service.
Together, we are making a difference.
