Central Cares Food Pantry

Our Mission

The Central Cares Food Pantry provides a welcoming space where students and families in need can access food to help balance their daily diet.
This pantry was created in response to the challenges some members of our Central community face in making ends meet.

Our goal is to keep the pantry stocked and build awareness that it’s a supportive, respectful resource for those who need it.
