Northampton Community College

Pennsylvania Hunger-Free Campus

The Pennsylvania Department of Education has designated Northampton Community College as a Pennsylvania Hunger-Free Campus. NCC will be provided resources, strategies, and support as well as opportunities to apply for grants so they can focus on their studies without the threat of food insecurity.

Food options through C.A.R.E. and H.O.P.E. on-campus food pantries serve students who are eligible to receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits, provides Spartan Aid to help students with essential needs and connects students with other resources.

The Pennsylvania Office of the First Lady launched the state-wide PHFC initiative. For more on how to help, visit our food pantries or e-mail Maryann Haytmanek at mhaytmanek@northampton.edu
