Back Pack Buddies

Consider volunteering with Backpack Buddies, a program that provides easy-to-prepare, nutritious food for school-aged children over the weekends. In many cases, these children rely on free and reduced meals at school to meet their nutritional needs, leaving them hungry over the weekend.
