Description

Children will learn about food insecurity in our community, tour the food pantry, and assemble school supply kits for food pantry clients. Who this in person service event is for: Ages 2-12. Adult caregivers are required to accompany child participants. Siblings of participants outside this age range are welcome, but may find the event to be less meaningful and fulfilling. What you'll be doing: When families in our community struggle to buy food, it is also difficult for them to buy other items like school supplies for their kids. With back-to-school right around the corner, we're teaming together with Broad Street Food Pantry to make sure food pantry clients receive basic school supplies for their kids. Join us to learn about food insecurity in our community and prepare school supply kits for food pantry clients.
