This need was observed because many of the kids would load up on their Friday lunch, even trying to stuff their pockets of extra food to take home. Many of the kids at these schools wouldn&#8217;t eat again until the school provided breakfast on Monday morning.<\/p>\n<p>The school staff began connecting with folks outside their area to gather food for these kids to take home to feed themselves and sometimes their families over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>This is where we can help.
