Pennsylvania Colleges Add Wellness Vending Machines with Foundation Support
Not all wellness vending funding comes from state legislatures — some originates from local foundations. According to Point Park University, the Jewish Healthcare Foundation provided grant funding to support wellness vending machines on campus.
What the Machines Provide
These machines stock:
-
Over-the-counter (OTC) medications
-
Sexual health products like condoms and emergency contraception
-
Other low-cost health and wellness items
The goal is to reduce barriers for students by offering discreet, affordable, and on-campus access.
Why This Matters
By leveraging local foundation support, colleges can address pressing wellness needs even when state-level programs don’t exist. It also shows how community partnerships can play a critical role in student wellness initiatives.
