Help Us Help Kids & Families With Backpack Buddies
Here is an outreach that anyone can be involved in. Help us collect "food stock" For Backpack Buddies. What is Backpack buddies about?
At several local schools, bags of non-perishable foods that are donated and collected by caring community members, are delivered to school offices and placed in backpacks on Friday afternoons by school staff for poverty "at-risk" kids each week. This allows those kids a certainty of not going hungry. Our women's group is spearheading this outreach, so call our office or email us for more information.
Here is a list of what is needed :
Tomato soup, Vienna sausages, tuna in water, boxed mac and cheese (7.25 oz.), instant oatmeal packs 2 original and 2 flavored, peanuts( 2 oz. bag), prepackaged snack crackers, fruit snacks pack (.9 oz.), 1 oz. box of raisins, mixed fruit cups, and individual 100% fruit juice packs. You can also donate funds via cash, check, or bank card. Thank you!
