One student struggling with hunger is ONE too many.

More kids are facing hunger in our country - millions more, in fact. Since March 2020, food insecurity rates across the nation for families with children are on the rise. Close to 1 in 5 U.S. families reported in December that they did not have enough food to eat.

Studies prove that children who are hungry have less energy, struggle to pay attention, are more likely to have behavioral problems in school, and often come to school late or miss school days altogether. All of this impacts their ability to learn.

So, that is where the BackPack Weekend Food Program steps in. When kids go home on the weekend, we make sure nearly 1,000 students each school year go home with a healthy bag of food to eat on the weekend so they can come to school ready to learn.
