TYLER, Texas (KLTV) - On the corner of Baxter and Lake Street, on the Tyler Junior College campus, a food pantry is in the midst of its soft opening. The pantry is a collaboration between TJC and PATH to help meet the food insecurity needs for students and is called PATHway to Comfort.
After hearing from staff and taking a survey the school teamed up with PATH due to their expertise in running a food pantry and having a relationship with the East Texas Food Bank, according to TJC’s Vice President of Operations Kim Lessner.
