BackSnacks

With funding from the Kelly Foundation the the BackSnacks program will be able to alleviate childhood hunger by providing 25,000 students and their families with dependable access to healthy food during evenings and weekends when it might not be available otherwise. The BackSnacks program focuses on the issue of childhood hunger and ensures that the students we serve can reach their full potential without the concern of where their next meal will  come from.
