A significant contribution from a local philanthropic group has provided a much-needed boost to the Bay College Student Food Pantry. The Delta County 100+ Women Who Care organization has donated $7,350 to support students facing food insecurity. This timely donation will ensure that essential food resources are available for those who need them most.

The impact of this generous gift cannot be overstated. With an increasing demand for food assistance, the funds will be used to stock the pantry with nutritious items that will help students maintain their academic and personal well-being. According to Amy Gibbs, Director of Career and Workforce Development at Bay College, this donation will significantly alleviate the burden on students, allowing them to focus more on their studies and less on where their next meal will come from.

An inspiring community initiative, the Delta County 100+ Women Who Care brings together dedicated individuals who meet quarterly to pool their resources and support local causes. Each member contributes $100, and the group collectively decides which charity or organization will receive the pooled donations. This quarter, the Bay College Student Food Pantry was chosen as the beneficiary, highlighting the group's commitment to education and student welfare.

This donation underscores the importance of community support in addressing critical issues like food insecurity. By coming together to assist students in need, the Delta County 100+ Women Who Care exemplify the power of collective action. Their efforts not only provide immediate relief but also foster a supportive environment that encourages students to thrive academically and contribute positively to society.
