Food Pantry

We have everyday staples and fresh and frozen foods plus hygiene products and a clothes closet!

Currently enrolled students will be required to sign in with their ID card each time they visit the Basic Needs Center and are allowed 1 snack & 1 drink per day.

Bag of food:  Currently enrolled students can receive a premade bag of food from the pantry once per month.

Note on Housing:  At this time Merced College Basic Needs does not provide financial assistance for housing.  Please see the Main Campus page on housing assistance.
