About

We are raising funds for the Basic Needs Sustainability & Leadership’s Food Insecurity Fund. At Portland Community College, 2 out of 3 students report that they face basic needs barriers that impact their educational journey. Donations to this fund will support campus Panther Pantry programs in the Student Basic Needs Centers. These programs include Free Food Markets, Panther Pack Meal Kits, Panther Snacks, and Seasonal Assistance, as well as food for the Panther Pantry.

Join us as we work to raise $15,000 for the Food Insecurity Fund on Big Give Day by making a gift now!

Be sure to encourage your friends to do the same by sharing Big Give Day on social media using the hashtag #PCCBigGiveDay
