Drive-Thru and Community Pantry Days

 

Thanks to Dallas College and North Texas Food Bank, community members can access free food on campus during “Drive-Thru Pantry” and “Community Pantry” days. There is no need to register for either event.

Drive-Thru Pantry days are when community members can drive through campus and pick up free groceries, including fresh produce and milk. Drive-Thru Pantry is first come, first served.

Drive-Thru Pantry days may be rescheduled or cancelled due to inclement weather conditions. The latest delivery information will be shared through Dallas College social media.

  • Arrive early to ensure you get some of the fresh produce available from the North Texas Food Bank.
  • You must have a vehicle to pick up groceries.
  • Drive-Thru Pantry participants are required to share their family size to receive food. No proof is necessary; the process is a self-declaration.
  • Read more about how to receive food.
