Aces Haven

Aces Haven door and interior

Aces Haven was created by students, for students. No matter your circumstances, this is available on our campus to support food insecurity. Aces Haven is located inside Neu Chapel and is open anytime Neu Chapel is – typically 7:00 a.m. until 11:00 p.m. (other than breaks). It is managed by the Student Government Association.

To access Aces Haven, enter the east door of Neu Chapel that faces Memorial Plaza and Bower-Surheinrich Library. Straight ahead in Room 100, you will find the food pantry with an Aces Haven sign on the door.
