Help us reach our goal of 200,000 decorated bags by September, 30!
Add a touch of love to our Sack Suppers this September! Sack Suppers are a nutritious, ready-to-eat meal delivered right to a child’s school or distribution site, ensuring children have access to the healthy food they need to thrive.
What you’ll need:
- Brown or white 6 or 8 lb. or size extra-large paper sacks work best.
- Crayons or markers.
- Refrain from using paint, glitter, feathers or stickers, as they can come off in the food.
- Please keep in mind that many Sack Suppers will be going to public schools and therefore cannot contain religious messages.
Feel free to drop decorated bags off during the month of September at any Kids’ Food Basket location.
