Donate to Panther's Pantry

Providing support for PBSC students experiencing food insecurities

The Panther Pantry is being developed to help PBSC students experiencing food insecurities get the basic food supplies and toiletries they need to succeed. Students in need can stop by the Panther Pantry located in SCA 103 on the Lake Worth campus.

Did you know: According to Feeding America, 15% of Palm Beach County's population struggles with food insecurity. In the 2014-15 year, Palm Beach State College enrolled 47,471 students. A potential of 7,000 students on our campuses could have faced food insecurity.

We need your support!

Help fill the Pantry with provisions for our students in need. The Pantry is accepting donations of non-perishable, quick and easy to prepare food or snack items and travel size toiletries. Please bring them to SCA 103 on the Lake Worth campus or to our donation boxes.

Note: All donations must be unopened and unused. Panther's Pantry cannot accept medications, vitamins or supplements of any kind.
