Campus Food Insecurity Initiatives

Chartwells Higher Education Debuts 'United Through Food'

Chartwells Higher Education, a leader in contract foodservice management at colleges and universities, has launched 'United Through Food' — a nationwide multi-phase initiative designed to address campus food insecurity while simultaneously reducing food waste through coordinated campaigns, awareness events, and food drives across more than three hundred campuses.

Chartwells Higher Education's 'United Through Food' campaign is structured around three primary pillars — reducing food waste through activities like Weigh the Waste campaigns and Stop Food Waste Day celebrations, organizing Stock the Pantry food drives to support students as they arrive for the fall semester, and hosting a unified National Day of Awareness to raise visibility around student food insecurity.

Chartwells Higher Education's initiative is noteworthy because according to the 2026 Campus Dining Index 56% of students experience challenges accessing food.
