Thanks to a generous grant from the Mahogany Foundation and the support of the NMC Foundation, NMC will host 14 Mobile Pantries throughout the 2025–26 academic year.

The pantries are designed specifically for NMC students, with grab and go type foods, fruits, vegetables, and family friendly snacks. Every other week, Feeding America West Michigan and NMC will distribute about 6,000 pounds of fresh goods via a drive-thru (or walk-thru) car line in the Maple Lot.

All distributions are held on Mondays, from 3–5 p.m. Food is distributed first-come, first-served until gone. While designed for students, any member of the community is welcome to participate.

This event is 100% free for participants. There are no means tests or financial requirements. At NMC, we believe no student (or member of our community) should go hungry.

Fall Dates: September 8 and 22, October 6 and 20, November 3 and 24, and December 1

Spring Dates: January 19, February 2 and 16, March 2 and 16, April 13 and 27
