Backpack Friends’ mission is to wipe out weekend hunger in local communities.
Did you know 1 out of every 4 kids in Texas doesn’t have regular access to food when away from their school campus? However, Backpack Friends (501c3) is changing that. In 2014, we began feeding 12 schools at a local elementary campus, and today, we have provided more than 150,000 weekend meal kits/snack packs to students across central Texas. That’s more than 850,000 pounds of nutritious, shelf-stable, kid-friendly, brand-name foods. Backpack Friends currently supports 4800 students each month and expects to double our impact within the next year.
Want to get involved? Volunteer, donate to Feed Kids, or purchase Backpack Friends swag/merch for yourself or as a gift.
