NMU Food Pantry - Dean of Students

Michigan’s food assistance program, also know as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP, provides benefits to low-income families to supplement their grocery budget so they can afford the nutritious food essential to health and well-being. Visit MI Bridges to apply for food assistance, check eligibility status and manage your account. It's also important for recipients to update any changes in MI Bridges to your income, employment, family situation or address.
