The Western Illinois University Food Pantry is implementing new COVID-19 procedures, as the current health situation continues.

The food pantry, now located in Horrabin Hall, room 10, will remain open every Thursday from noon-5 p.m., and Saturday 10 a.m.-noon.

One patron will be allowed to enter at a time, and will be accompanied by one volunteer. Social distancing will be required.

All other patrons will be required to stand outside the building, using social distancing markers, until they are allowed to enter.

All patrons and volunteers will be given hand sanitizer upon entering, their temperature will be taken with a contactless thermometer, and face coverings are required.
