About Helping Hands

Helping Hands provides Ocean County College and Kean Ocean students with non-academic support to help them succeed. In the pantry, we offer snacks, drinks, and meals to students in need.

Our office also provides resources for financial assistance, referrals for housing support, and more.

Online Ordering

Helping Hands is excited to offer online shopping using PantrySoft. This program gives students the ability to order food online from home and pick up their order the next time they are on campus.
