A $200,000 donation from Stop & Shop is going to the Connecticut State Colleges and Universities food pantry system.
The donation will support pantries at Central, Eastern, Southern, and Western Connecticut State Universities.
About half of the students at those schools say they cannot afford balanced meals.
Stop & Shop says the donation will help ensure students have access to healthy food at home.
