Every month approximately 25 children visit our Center for services. Often parents are frantic trying to get them here, and forget to make sure they eat prior to coming, or don’t have the means to feed them. A child can’t be fully engaged if they are hungry. For these reasons we have started a new project called the Snack Pack Drive.
During their visits, we would love to provide them with a healthy snack and beverage from an approved food list. We are asking individuals, churches or civic organizations to sign up to provide snacks for one month during the year.
Individually wrapped snacks:
Goldfish crackers – original flavor (1 oz. bags)
Lara Bar Kids- chocolate brownie flavor (0.96 oz. package)
Motts Medley assorted fruit snack packs (0.8 oz. packs)
