Peoples Bank Foundation Student Market

On our campus, food insecurity is very real and if you are experiencing it right now, you need to know you are not alone. More importantly, we want you to know that your campus family cares and we want to help. That's why we devised the Peoples Bank Foundation Student Market. In addition to our generous sponsorship from Peoples Bank, we also receive support from the Marietta Welfare League, Marietta Community Foundation, Walmart, and the WSCO Foundation.

Goal

The Peoples Bank Foundation Student Market provides nutritious food to students and their families. To aid in our success, we are working in collaboration with the Marietta Community Food Pantry, the Southeastern Ohio Food Bank, Washington County Harvest of Hope, and other pantries in the region.

The Market is set up to resemble a grocery store experience. We provide ongoing help to students and their families, as well as emergency assistance when needed. Our goal is to serve as many students as possible. We welcome monetary and non-perishable food donations, as well as volunteers.

Access

Students have the flexibility of selecting food items that suit their taste/diet. While use of the Peoples Bank Foundation Student Market is anonymous, it's important to note that students are required to use their student ID to enter.

Location

The Peoples Bank Foundation Student Market is located in the CSS/Library building and can be accessed from the upper student parking lot from either the rear or main entrances.
