By mobilizing support from our generous donors and partnering with local community organizations and schools, our programming focuses on achieving consistent impact for children and families to increase their access to food directly in the communities where they live. Designed to overlap and contribute holistically to reducing hunger and food insecurity in targeted areas, these initiatives include our resource rally, food & essentials hub, summer feed & read, and backpack-n-go programs (see schedule o for program descriptions) domestic program descriptions:through our resource rally program, we partner with local community organizations to deliver food as well as essential household and personal care items directly to communities where they are needed most. At each resource rally, families receive a 25-pound box of food, a 15-pound box of essential household and personal care items, and other items such as books. We partner directly with school districts to implement our food & essentials hub program, which provides food and essential items, books, and school supplies through school-based pantries to children risking hunger. Our summer feed & read program increases children's access to food during the summer months when they do not have access to meals served at school. The program also combats summer learning loss by providing books and promoting enrollment in summer learning opportunities such as library-sponsored reading programs. Along with school supplies and personal care items, our backpack-n-go program provides child-friendly and easy-to-prepare meals for children to eat when they don't have access to school meals. Additionally, when natural disasters such as tornadoes and hurricanes strike, feed the children works with local community partners to ensure that children and families in impacted areas have the food and essentials they need.
