Student Food Pantry

Are you struggling to afford food? Student Food Pantry Logo
You are not alone. We are here to help.

We created the ACC Student Food Pantry because we know that when students are worried about where their next meal is coming from, they can’t focus on their studies.

There are no rules or limitations for this pantry. Take what you need, but please don’t abuse it.

Located next to room 120 in the Besser Technical Center (BTC), the Food Pantry has a variety of food items available. We’ve created a list of area organizations offering free meals and several easy, low-cost recipe ideas. Check out the bulletin board in the pantry! For Oscoda students, stop by the Student Success Center in OSC 206 for assistance. 

What's in the pantry?

  • Cereal
  • Granola bars
  • Macaroni & cheese
  • Oatmeal
  • Pasta
  • Pasta sauce
  • Peanut butter & jelly
  • Rice
  • Snacks
  • Soups
