Free Food Project

Students enjoying free food at the Hub Café
To help address food security in our community, TMU Eats partners with senior leadership teams, student societies and unions across the university to offer students free food to help fuel up for the final exam period.

What we offered

Free meal program

TMU Eats prepared hot meals made in-house by the TMU Eats team at the Hub Café.

Offerings included:

  • Choice of one meat entrée (halal) or vegetarian entrée  or one plant-based entrée (vegan) with two sides (vegan)*
  • A choice of one cold beverage, and one rotating snack food item

We also offered certified kosher packaged options and made-without-gluten entree alternatives upon request.

In April 2025, we served 3,918 free meals & snacks through the Free Food Project!

Information for staff and faculty 

TMU faculty and staff were also invited to access the all-inclusive meal option at the Hub Café for $8.75 (tax inclusive).  

TMU Eats donated all proceeds from staff and faculty sales during the event to fund future food security programs.
