Students, you have until Nov. 10 to see if you qualify for free meals
(Posted Nov. 3, 2020)
Austin Peay State University students who need help putting food on the table can get free hot meals through a new Austin Peay State University Foundation program.
But those students must visit as soon as possible to fill out a survey to make sure they are added to the program. You must have your surveys turned in by Nov. 10!
The survey takes only one minute to complete.
The Austin Peay State University Foundation is using a Tennessee Community CARES Program grant to offer free hot meals to students in need. The new APSU Foundation program, Feed a Gov, is funded under a grant contract with the State of Tennessee and will use the $500,000 grant to provide eligible students and their families with meal vouchers to the University’s dining venues and expanded opportunities for placing grocery orders through the University’s food pantry.
