Check out the Leopard Food Pantry
Temple College recognizes that food insecurity is a serious concern and that it can interfere with academic performance and student success. By establishing this resource, we hope to reduce food insecurity for students by ensuring that adequate food is available. There are two Leopard Food Pantry locations - in the Arnold Student Union (ASU) on the Temple campus, and at Temple College - Taylor. Learn more about our requirements by clicking the link below.

Words cannot express the gratitude that I feel, Temple college and the people involved have truly, truly blessed me. Absolutely blessed me, and I know that I'm finally going on a path that I feel represents me and a career that I actually enjoy!

Two years ago, I was homeless and living out of my van while attending Temple College. The food pantry often provided the only food I had. Today, I have my own apartment and am working toward my dream of becoming a polysomnographic technologist.

As a full-time student unable to work, meeting basic needs—especially food—has been challenging. The Temple College Food Pantry has been a vital support, providing nutritious groceries that allow me to focus on my studies without worrying about my next meal.

Thank you all so much for trying to help me! I genuinely cannot express how grateful I am for everyone. It's hard to ask for help, it feels embarrassing and vulnerable but everyone I've reached out to has been so kind and understanding. I really appreciate everyone♥️. Thank you again!

Circle of Support
During my time as a student at Temple College, the Circle of Support and the Leopard Food pantry were essential during periods of financial stress in my family. The compassion and support that I received from the COS Team genuinely made a positive difference, both in my life and in my overall experience at Temple College.
