Blessings in a Backpack helps prevent hunger

The “Blessings in a Backpack” program steps-up where federal aid stops by feeding children on the weekend.  Every Friday afternoon, children receive backpacks filled with kid-friendly, ready-to-eat items.  Students return every Monday morning with an empty backpack, a full stomach, and an eager mind.  In the schools we work with In Lee County test scores, reading skills, positive behavior, general health, and attendance have improved dramatically.   This happens when children get the nourishment they need.
