The Regional Food Bank’s BackPack Program
helps alleviate child hunger by providing hungry children with nutritious and easy-to-prepare food
at times when other resources are not available,
such as on weekends.
The program provides kids with food that is
child-friendly, shelf stable, and easily consumed.
