Band 'Cats Pantry Opens at the Tracz Family Band Hall
The mission of the Band 'Cats Pantry is to provide temporary, supplemental food, personal hygiene, and paper products to KSUMB members at not cost to them.
The Band Cats Pantry aspires to eliminate food insecurity for KSUMB students by providing readily available supplemental food before and after rehearsals, performances, and any other time that students need it. This will help ensure tat no student in our band program goes hungry because of a lack of income of access to food.
