CCAMPIS Offers Free Groceries Plus Delivery (Annandale Campus Pilot)

March 25, 2022 / Our Nighthawks

CCAMPIS is excited to announce a new resource for NOVA’s parenting and pregnant students. Funded by M&T Bank, CCAMPIS will partner with the Capital Area Food Bank to offer free, pre-selected groceries for delivery to the student’s residence. We need 30 students to start, so please share the news
