For immediate release — Sept. 10, 2025

Dallas College, in partnership with the North Texas Food Bank, is continuing its commitment to fighting food insecurity by offering Drive-Thru Pantries and Community Pantry Days throughout the year. These events are open to both students and the general public. On-campus food pantries are a key service provided to Dallas College students, helping to remove barriers to academic success. On select days the college extends its support to surrounding communities.

Drive-Thru Pantries are held monthly at rotating Dallas College campuses and centers. Boxes containing fresh Volunteers, including Dr. Lonon, loading food boxes into a car produce, milk and pantry staples are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. The food pantries are open to everyone during Community Pantry Days. They operate 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Fridays. Locations and times can be found at the Dallas College Community Pantry website.
