This collaboration with the UNO Maverick Food Pantry will make a tremendous impact for our students.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It will be a very simple process, said Andrew Faltin, J.D., of the office of student success. UNMC students will <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1xDYiqHLTAAGlcaGz4AajG9cpD3sVD1xSVQDEs5rnq6Q\/viewform?ts=5c33d0e3&#038;edit_requested=true\">fill out a form<\/a> and be able to select items from the food pantry. Students can select up to 10 items and use the service twice a week.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;UNO&#8217;s food pantry gets donations, and they&#8217;ve spent a lot of time creating options that are organic, culturally sensitive and address dietary needs,&#8221; Faltin said. &#8220;They also offer the ability to get non-perishable non-food items, things like toothpaste.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After filling out the form, students will have easy access to the food pantry within 24-48 hours, and also will be offered options for how to get to UNO, Faltin said. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We also want to let faculty and staff know because they might have a greater understanding of the needs of our students,&#8221; Faltin said. &#8220;Some of our international students, for example, can&#8217;t get access to federal financial aid, and so they could be at greater risk for food insecurity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For more information, <a
