Student Involvement

JP’s Market Food Pantry

JP’s Market is a free and anonymous resource to help eliminate food insecurity on our campus. It is open to all currently enrolled students at The University of Houston-Victoria, as well as Victoria College. The Market gives students access to food and hygiene products at least once a week, with no limit on how many times they can return. We offer a variety of foods to ensure students can focus on academics, and not on where they are getting their next meal. Students can also find information on various local resources, as well as government assistance programs. JP’s Market is supported by a partnership with The Food Bank of the Golden Crescent, as well as donations from UHV students, staff, faculty and community members.

JP’s Market is now open for Summer 2024 on Wednesdays from 1-3 P.M. The market is located at Jaguar Hall, Suite 1135.

If a student is unavailable during market hours or does not feel comfortable selecting items from the market, they can place an online order through the JP's Market Pick-Up Order Form on JagSync. Please contact Dominic Flores at (361) 485-4584, for more information.
