Mission
Alleviate food insecurity amongst elementary school children and promote healthy nutritional and lifestyle habits. Specifically, we distribute backpacks of shelf-stable, ready-to-eat food to elementary school children over the weekend period when they are out of school in cities such as, but not limited to, New York and Los Angeles. We purchase grocery items for distribution to disadvantaged parents of elementary school children served by the backpack program, and also provide nutritious restaurant meals to the schoolchildren, as a monthly community building activity. We identify communities of need and provide food to families with children in these areas.
