DASB Student Rights and Services

The Campus Cupboard

Introduction

As community college students, we understand that if one is lacking monetary support, it not only affects the individual psychologically, but it limits the capabilities of the individual to pursue his/her academic goals.

As representatives of our students, we would like to ensure that our low-income students are able to pursue their academia without the interference of deprived funds. Therefore, we have strategized on how to make it possible for students to receive food certificates in order to support them in their future academic endeavors.

 

This service will be provided by the DASB Student Rights and Services Committee in collaboration with The Institute of Community and Civic Engagement. The food is provided by West Valley Community Services.
