    Hey all, looking for any information on a software for inventory and/ or pos used for a campus food pantry? Of course no money will be exchanged but want to be able track inventory electronically.

    Thanks. ?

    Hi Phillip — sorry I don’t have an answer for you as we just do a visual survey to identify what is on-hand, but I am also curious to know what’s out there!

    Just boosting this again for visibility.

    Anyone else running a foodbank on campus using software to help manage their inventory?

      Hi folks
      Back when I worked at RIT we had just started a food share program that has been extremely successful. I don’t know if they use a software system, but it’s worth reaching out to William St. Jean. He’s been there since it’s inception, and I do believe it started as a residence life initiative back then and now it’s a whole program on it’s own.

      Miami University carries the name of the Myaamia people who, along with the Shawnee, were forcibly removed from these homelands. Despite centuries of colonization, the Myaamia people preserve a deep connection to this land and are engaged in a vibrant resurgence of their heritage language and culture. 

      The university maintains a strong reciprocal relationship with the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma grounded in our shared commitment to learning and each other.
