The Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS) recognizes that the quality of instruction and educational opportunities for all are enhanced when the diversity of the community served is represented in the student and workforce population. The KCTCS Office of Multicultural Affairs and the 16 diversity officers at each of the colleges are committed to Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative Action (EEO/AA) programs which promote diversity and remedy the underrepresentation of women and people of color.
You must be a currently enrolled ACTC student in order to receive assistance.
Students are eligible to receive assistance from the pantry once per month.
At this time we are not receiving fresh produce, bakery, or meats, only pre-packaged food distribution due to current health and safety guidelines.
All students must register/place an order via the intake form on the website. Food will be packaged and a pick up time / campus location will be designated. You must register with your KCTCS email address using this website: https://ashland.kctcs.edu/about/student-life/pantry.aspx Pick up times for your order will be emailed to you.
Our pantry is meant to supplement other assistance that you receive. Please consider working with one of our community partners to better meet all of your needs including produce, bakery items, meats, and dairy products. Kentucky and Ohio residents can contact River Cities Harvest at 606-324-3663 or https://rivercitiesharvest.org/ West Virginia residents can contact Facing Hunger at 304-523-6029 or https://www.facinghunger.org/
Thank you in advance for your patience as we navigate this new way of operation!
