BackPack Buddies Food Drive
1 in 5 children are at risk of hunger in North Carolina, according to Feeding America. That is why this Back to School season I am happy to announce my partnership with Blue Water Spa and Inter-Faith Food Shuttle to host the Backpack Buddies food drive.
BackPack Buddies is designed to provide children from low-income households with 10-12 pounds of nutritious kid friendly groceries for the weekend when free school lunches and breakfasts are not provided. The Food Shuttle works with each school system and individual schools to identify need.
