Thanks for Giving at NMC

With SNAP benefits expiring on Nov. 1 for thousands of our neighbors across the region, there has never been a more urgent time to fight food insecurity in our community. Northwestern Michigan College is taking up its 12th annual “Thanks for Giving” project, with a goal “to provide 175 Thanksgiving meals to families in need across both NMC and the local community,” including a partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwestern Michigan. NMC students will be collecting monetary donations at nmc.edu/give along with granola bars and jars of peanut butter through Nov. 18. Red collection bins for food will be located across NMC’s campuses, including the Timothy J. Nelson Innovation Center, Aero Park Parsons-Stulen campus, and the Great Lakes campus.
