College can be challenging. Getting healthy food doesn’t have to be.
We are happy to announce that West Valley College has partnered with Second Harvest of Silicon Valley to address student hunger! We will be working together to offer food assistance support to West Valley College students and the community.
West Valley offers three types of food assistance to students:
Second Harvest Food Bank of Silicon Valley hosts a drive-thru food distribution every Monday from 9:30 AM – 11:00 AM in parking lot 6.
Need more food on another day? Please visit the Second Harvest website.
Meal Vouchers are available for students qualifying students in need. Find out more information by visiting The Office of Student Needs.
To support students and their well-being, the Office of Student Needs provides daily snacks for students. Please visit the snack rack located in The Office of Student Needs.
The Cohn Family Food Pantry is a food share program that provides fresh produce, non-perishable, and refrigerated goods to feed WVC students and the local community.
