Who We Are
The N.E.S.T. Resource center is a college-based organization that works to combat food insecurity for the City Tech community
and their families. Our funding is provided through student activity funds, individual donations,
and grants from various community agencies and/or organizations whose focus is to support student success and wellness.
At the N.E.S.T., we recognize that to thrive academically, students must be as free of concern as possible,
in order to focus on their educational endeavors. It is for this reason that we have adopted a holistic approach to servicing student needs.
Who We Serve
The mission of The N.E.S.T. Resource Center is to provide City Tech, as well as CUNY students, with emergency assistance and resources to support their academic success.
How We Serve
The N.E.S.T. serves students and their families by providing a variety of perishable and non-perishable products, such as fruits, vegetables, shelf-stable goods, frozen/refrigerated products and much more. To allow students agency in selecting their preferred products of choice, the N.E.S.T. has adopted a market style pantry.
All items are free, and students may visit the pantry once per week by appointment M-Th or by walk-in on Fridays.
