We received great news from an organization passionate about the Comet Cupboard. They have agreed to match all donations to this crowdfunding campaign!
You heard that right – A 100% match for every dollar donated to the Comet Cupboard.
We need your help in spreading the word and making a donation to move us closer to reaching the $10,000 goal. Please continue to email and share updates on your social media to create a #hungerfreeutd.
The Comet Cupboard team sends our sincere thanks to all of you who have donated and supported our cause by sharing our video.

Our generous donor who has agreed to match all gifts to this campaign has also made the lead gift of $5,000! We are more than halfway to our goal!
College students are not immune to food insecurity. However, they also face the difficulty of choosing between food and paying for other essentials. According to a 2014 study by Feeding America, “69% had to choose between food and utilities, 67% between food and transportation, 66% between food and medical care, 57% between food and housing, and 31% had to choose between food and education."
Again, thank you to everyone who has donated thus far. We could not do this without you!

Join us in the fight against hunger at UT Dallas and DONATE TODAY! https://impact.utdallas.edu/hunger-free-utd #HungerFreeUTD
People say, “When I was young, I worked my way through college.” In 2015, did you know a UTD student (Texas resident) would have to work 100 hours per week at minimum wage, each semester to pay for 12 credit hours of tuition? This does not include room, board, books, and most importantly FOOD! Non-residents would have to work DOUBLE to cover the same costs.
We only need $737 to reach our goal! Leave NO hungry Comets behind and DONATE TODAY! We have had 77 gracious donors. If 15 people donate $50 we will meet our $10,000 goal! Please share this post with your friends and family! Thank you again for all those who have contributed thus far!
The summer is upon us and Comets are needing the Cupboard more than ever.
