The Maricopa County Community College District is excited to announce a $20,000 grant from the Kroger Co. Foundation to support food pantry initiatives district-wide.
The mission of the Kroger Co. Foundation is “to Feed the Human Spirit” and they focus their support on organizations that work to end hunger, improve food security, and provide balanced meals to families in the most need.
