SAN MARCOS \u2014 With the Thanksgiving holiday approaching, the Palomar College Associated Student Government (ASG) led a food drive on campus earlier this month, gathering 504 pounds of nonperishable stock for the Anita & Stan Maag Food & Nutrition Center.<\/p>\n

The Nov. 6-7 drive\u2014organized as part of the ASG\u2019s \u201cBasic Needs Awareness: Stock the Bank\u201d event\u2014also yielded a number of non-food essentials that are also stocked at the center.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s wonderful to see our campus community contributing so generously to the Food & Nutrition Center during this giving season,\u201d said Palomar College Superintendent\/President Dr. Joi Lin Blake. \u201cAt Palomar, we are committed to ensuring that each student\u2019s basic needs are met.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Palomar College Office of Student Affairs has operated a food pantry for 34 years, providing weekly food distributions and longer-term support for students who need it, but the program outgrew its previous home. This year\u2019s holiday is the second Thanksgiving for the Anita & Stan Maag Food & Nutrition Center, which was expanded from a single room in 2018 to provide additional resources to address student food insecurity.<\/p>\n

With the new space, the college now has refrigerators for distributing nutrient-rich produce and dairy, as well as a staging area to accept pallets of food.<\/p>\n
