Back Pack Buddies

 Did you know up to half of all school-age children in some areas qualify to receive free or reduced cost lunches? Many children consume nutritious meals at school during the week, but experience food insecurity on weekends. Additionally, they do not have access to school meals over holidays and most high risk students do not have access to summer meal programs.  Change the World Relief Organization is devoted to helping meet the nutritional needs of these children through the Back Pack Buddies Program.  The Back Pack Buddies Program provides children in need with a pre-prepared backpack of fun, yet nutritionally balanced food that will help supplement their dietary needs outside of school. The food provided requires little preparation and can be consumed without the need to cook.  This ensures that no matter what their circumstances are at home, they are less likely to go hungry.  Realizing that hunger does not cease when school is out, we help provide backpacks during holidays and summer vacation as well. We are committed to providing food when school is out so high risk students have better access to the nutrition they need. By partnering with the Back Pack Buddies Program through Change the World, you can help food insecure children gain access to meals when school is closed and make a difference in their lives.
