The WOLF Pantries at Front Range Community College are a crucial support system for our college community, providing access to nutritious food and essential items for those experiencing food insecurity.
Our pantries, open to all students, staff, faculty and instructors, stock a variety of food items such as peanut butter, canned goods and bread—with availability varying based on deliveries and donations.
Last year, our pantries served 1,158 unique users and welcomed 755 new users, resulting in 7,928 visits. We distributed an impressive 68,187 pounds of food and facilitated 94 trips to food banks to meet our community's needs.
