EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) — El Paso Community College is partnering once again with El Pasoans Fighting Hunger to provide mobile food pantries at several EPCC campuses across the city through the end of April.<\/p>\n
The mobile pantry, previously known as grocery pickup, will be held on selected dates from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and will offer free groceries to students and community members while supplies last. <\/p>\n
EPCC officials say the effort is designed to help address food insecurity among students and local families.<\/p>\n
Events will take place at multiple campuses, including Valle Verde, Transmountain, Rio Grande and Mission del Paso. Organizers ask Texas residents attending the mobile pantry to bring their own bags.<\/p>\n
The Valle Verde campus will host the pantry Feb. 11, March 11 and April 8 in Parking Lot L. <\/p>\n
The Transmountain campus will host events Feb. 18 and April 15 in Parking Lot B. <\/p>\n
The Rio Grande campus is scheduled for Feb. 25, March 25 and April 22 in Parking Lot D. <\/p>\n
The Mission del Paso campus will host pantry events March 4 and April 1 at the Horseshoe area.<\/p>\n
EPCC Student Government Association and Campus Life are assisting with the events at each location.<\/p>\n
