The Backpack Program<\/strong> provides food insecure children, pre-K through 5th grade, with three nutritious meals a day, every weekend, and over every school break.<\/em><\/p>\n Without access to free or reduced school lunch, many children struggle with hunger over the weekend. For these children, the weekend is often viewed with anxiety and apprehension over what they will eat. The Backpack Program ensures that when the bell rings on Friday until our kids go back to school on Monday morning, they have something good to eat so that they are happy, healthy, and ready to learn.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_video src=”https:\/\/youtu.be\/yWe5tHT3jcE?si=Kvf6X1YMkfHuZ5cV” image_src=”\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/yWe5tHT3jcE\/hqdefault.jpg” play_icon_color=”#FFFFFF”
