More than 21 million children qualify for free or reduced-price meals through the National School Lunch Program and the National School Breakfast Program. For many of these children, school meals may be the only meals they eat. What happens when they go home over the weekend?
For more than 15 years, the Feeding America BackPack Program has been helping children get the nutritious and easy-to-prepare food they need to get enough to eat on the weekends. Today, bags of food are assembled at more than 160 local food banks and then distributed to more than 450,000 children at the end of the week.
The Brockport Kiwanis Club supports the BackPack Program at the Brockport Ecumenical Food Shelf through the monies we raise in our local fundraisers.
Need More Information?
For additional information, please contact Kathy Hayes, director of the Food Shelf at 637-8169.
Remember that if you know of anyone who needs help with food, please have them call The Ecumenical Food Shelf at 637-8169. Someone will either answer the call or, if they leave a message, the call will be returned, usually within an hour or two. We can help… and we do deliver to those who are handicapped or without transportation.
