On June 15, 2023, Stewart Warren from the Bassett Kiwanis Club donated $500 to the Ferrum College Panther Pantry.
The panther pantry also includes the career closet, toiletries and is a part of the student support services housed in Roberts Hall, along with the counseling center and the mindfulness and creativity suites.
“We are truly thankful for this thoughtful gift from the Bassett Kiwanis which, will help us support our students in times of need,” said Dr. Mirta Martin, Ferrum College president. “Food insecurity is a reality in our communities and on every college and university campus. At Ferrum College, we are grateful for partners like the Bassett Kiwanis who come along side us to care and provide for our Ferrum Family.”
