Help Our Students Thrive

The Basic Needs Center at Sierra College is a lifeline of resources for students facing hardships. The center offers everything from a fully stocked food pantry along with essential school supplies and hygiene items to resources for mental health, housing, transportation and technology. We also help parents thrive by providing baby formula and diapers. Consider purchasing items from our Wish List.
