Harvesters/

Back Snack Program


Harvesters' BackSnack program is a lifeline for schoolchildren facing food insecurity over the weekend. Each week, these resilient young individuals receive a specially prepared backpack filled with nourishing and child-friendly food. With over 100,000 children in Harvesters' service area relying on free and reduced-price school meals during the week, the BackSnack program ensures they don't go hungry during weekends. This impactful initiative operates through a collaboration between Harvesters, participating schools, and local community partners, typically corporate, civic, or religious organizations. Harvesters provides the essential food supplies and backpacks, while the community partners assist in collecting the BackSnack kits and distributing them to schools. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of these children and combating weekend hunger head-on.
