HCC Food Pantry

The HCC food pantry is part of the wellness center and the fueling dragons program, which provides food security resources and promotes healthy eating habits and skills in a three-pillar approach of education, access, and support. The program provides weekly meal kits, cooking videos, and educational opportunities in tandem with the food pantry and campus garden.

Students can access the pantry weekly for grocery items to include shelf-stable, fresh, refrigerated, and frozen items. Students can select 10 items or 12 items with their own reusable bag during their shopping trip. Overall, the pantry focuses on healthier options using the supporting wellness at pantries (SWAP) model to organize the pantry, highlighting products lower in saturated fat, sodium, and sugar. To support hungry students, HCC food pantry offers a grab and go section featuring a breakfast or lunch kit for students. Hours vary by semester.
