ANN ARBOR, MI – The University of Michigan’s Maize & Blue Cupboard is proud to announce its fall hours, reaffirming its commitment to ensuring that every member of the university community has equitable access to healthy and nutritious food. With rising living costs affecting students nationwide, the Cupboard is dedicated to providing essential resources for those facing food insecurity, allowing them to focus on their education without the burden of hunger.

Beginning this fall,

the Maize & Blue Cupboard will operate under revised hours, offering services by appointment only. Students can now access food resources on Sundays from 2-6 PM, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 3-7 PM, Tuesdays from 10 AM-12 PM and 3-7 PM, and Fridays from 12-7 PM.
