Klemis Kitchen Opens for Students at TechThis semester, Georgia Tech opened its first food pantry, Klemis Kitchen. The program is intended to serve as an alternate meal plan for students who have certain dietary needs and financial concerns.


“Hunger should not be an issue that students here face, but the reality is that many students, both undergraduate and graduate, deal with it,” said Sid Sinha, the student lead for the Klemis initiative. “Klemis Kitchen will allow students to focus on academics and allow them to pursue their ambitions.”

The idea behind Klemis Kitchen was inspired by Tommy Klemis’ legacy. Klemis owned Junior’s Grill, a popular student hangout for several decades on Tech’s campus. Klemis was sometimes known to feed students who couldn’t pay so they could continue on with their academic lives and not have to worry about where their next meal was coming from.
