important part of our kids well-being
"The weekend snackpack bags mean everything to our students. They are coveted! I have kids begging for them. "Why can't I get a food bag?" "How do I get on the list?" I can imagine in many places that there may be a stigma attached to receiving these bags, but not here! Weekend Snackpacks are such a important part of our kids' well-being, thank you from the bottom of my heart!"
-Ms. Kimberly Goodman , Social Worker - Thorndyke Elementary
COMMUNITY PROJECT
VIKING pANTRY
January 2023 we were able to start a pantry at our school partners Showalter Middle School. We listened on how distribution of weekend meals would work for them and this is what they suggested! We are still in need of hygiene products and food donations to continue and this is only the beginning.
