Star Fish Pack – food to home program for weekends
It provides 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, 2 dinners and snacks for children over the weekend. Cost is just $575 to feed a child for a whole school year.
We greatly appreciate any donations and all funds go directly to the child. A backpack is filled up with food; it is then delivered to the school to go home on Friday with the necessary food for the weekend. Teachers find that many kids come to school Monday morning not having had dinner the night before, breakfast that morning or an adequate lunch for the day. This makes learning challenging for the student and for the teacher.
The first backpacks will go out on December 6th at a local Elementary School.
