Maverick Food Pantry Partners With Nebraska Diaper Bank

Through collaboration with the Gender and Sexuality Resource Center and the Women and Gender Equity Center at UNO, the Maverick Food Pantry became a Nebraska Diaper Bank partner in March 2023. This means the pantry now distributes free diapers to all Maverick Food Pantry guests — including the UNO community, UNMC students, and College of Saint Mary students.
