The Backpack Program provides weekend meals to more than 1200 local students each weekend during the school year. Each week, children receive a bag filled with 2 breakfast items, 2 lunch items, 2 fruits, 2 snacks, and 2 juices. 🎒
With the 2023-24 school year approaching fast, we need your help to continue fighting child hunger through the Backpack Program!
We are calling on our compassionate supporters to “Back the Pack” by providing food items or making a donation from Monday, July 29th to Friday, August 2nd. We will be set up outside the Sam's Club exit, where you can drop off non-perishable food items or make a monetary donation. Thank you for your support and God bless!
Items Needed:
• 𝐑𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐧 𝐍𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐥𝐞𝐬
• 𝐌𝐚𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐢 & 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐬𝐞
• 𝐉𝐮𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐁𝐨𝐱𝐞𝐬/𝐏𝐨𝐮𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬
• 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐎𝐚𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐬
• 𝐀𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐜𝐞/𝐅𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐭 𝐂𝐮𝐩𝐬
• 𝐅𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐭 𝐒𝐧𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐬
• 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐃𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬
The food we provide does more than fill a belly. It allows children to focus in school and grow their strongest. It takes pressure off families struggling to make ends meet, and it helps prevent homelessness down the road.
Just $10 feeds 4 children for a weekend; $100 feeds a child every weekend for the entire school year! If you would like to help a child or learn more about the Backpack Program, please call, email, or visit us online at northlandsrescuemission.org/backpack.
Special thank you to Sam's Club for partnering with us on this event!
