The Food Lion Feeds Charitable Foundation and The Vance-Granville Community College Foundation are teaming up to fight food insecurity and ensure our students have access to nutritious meals. 💚🍎🥪
Thanks to a generous $3,000 Feeding the Hungry grant from Food Lion Feeds, VGCC can do even more to support students who are experiencing hunger. We’re so grateful for this partnership that helps nourish our students and bring hope to families across our campuses—together, we’re making a difference! 💪
The VGCC food pantry provides quality food items and other goods to current students and employees in need. To learn more, contact [email protected] or 252-738-3323.

The VGCC Foundation extends heartfelt thanks to all the vendors, shoppers, and volunteers who made our recent "Fill the Pantry" Craft Show a wonderful success!
Because of your generosity and support, we raised about $1,800 and collected 563 food items to help stock the VGCC Food Pantry. Your support directly helps us combat food insecurity among our students and ensures they have the resources they need to stay focused on their education and success.
Together, we’re making a difference—one meal, one student, and one act of kindness at a time. Thank you!
