SUPPORT THE CAMPUS CUPBOARD

We are ALWAYS accepting donations of shelf stable, non-perishable food and personal care items for the Campus Cupboard. Interested in donating? Shop our Amazon Wish Lists, check the Needs List below for suggested items to donate, or make a monetary contribution here.

Items purchased from our Amazon wish lists will ship directly to the Foundation offices for distribution among our pantry locations. Otherwise, donations can be dropped off at the NSCC Foundation offices, located in room H-120 of the Health & Humanities Building on NSCC’s White Bridge Road Campus. To make a donation drop-off appointment or if your group or organization would like to host a donation drive, please contact Chelsea Spence.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • We cannot accept perishable or opened food items 
  • We cannot accept used or opened kitchen supplies or personal care items
