About

Basic Needs is the umbrella term for many initiatives we have at the University of Tennessee to help students meet their basic needs. These initiatives range from the Big Orange Pantry, Smokey's Closet, and a number of others. Please check out the Center for Basic Needs website for a detailed explanation of each of our services: basicneeds.utk.edu. 

Our offices and services are located in the Student Union on the third floor.
