Barons don't go hungry.
We know you can’t do your best on an empty stomach. Nationwide research shows that 42% of community college students experience food insecurity. This correlates with reduced academic performance and lower rates of degree completion. We want you to make it to the finish line! That’s why we’ve opened the student food pantry, where you can access free food without questions.
The RCBC Food Pantry is available to any currently registered student with an RCBC ID.
Food Pantry Hours
Monday: CLOSED
Tuesday: 10 am - 2 pm
Wednesday: 10 am - 2 pm
Thursday: CLOSED
Friday: CLOSED
If the food pantry has to close due to unforeseen circumstances, students can pick up a pre-made bag of groceries from the front desk in the Student Success Center.
To coordinate a pickup outside of open food pantry hours, contact Student Support at studentsupport@rcbc.edu. Students are to bring their own bag for groceries.
*Please note hours are subject to change during the semester.
