About this service

Our BackPack Program’s mission is to meet the needs of children experiencing hunger on weekends and other times when school meals are not available.

The BackPack Program provides child-friendly, non-perishable food that can be easily prepared at home. BackPack bags are discreetly distributed to children before weekends or holidays to ensure they will have enough to eat.
