Join us in Ensuring that No Lumberjack Goes Hungry

At NAU, too many students are balancing academics with the stress of not knowing where their next meal will come from. Rising costs make it harder to afford groceries, even for those doing everything right.  

What's Next for Louie's Cupboard

What started as a student class project is now a vital campus resource serving hundreds each year.

Through a partnership with the Flagstaff Family Food Center, Louie's Cupboard expanded access to fresh, high-quality food while strengthening long-term sustainability.

Next, Louie's Cupboard is building toward a client-choice shopping model—giving individuals the dignity to choose the foods that meet their needs, just like a grocery store. This model also allows for greater variety, increased access, and a more personalized experience for those served.

From fresh produce and proteins to pantry staples, Louie’s Cupboard is meeting today’s needs while creating a more dignified, accessible future.
