Backpack Food for Kids Program completes Successful Year

Due to concern for the children of the Eastland community, the” Backpack Food for Kids” program has completed another successful year through Siebert Elementary School. Thirty children were assisted with extra food on weekends and holidays. Teachers identify children who are experiencing food insecurity (lack of food) and parents of these children complete paperwork to enroll children into the program. The program is funded by local individuals, businesses, and churches. From your heart to their need. No government assistance is provided. The board is very appreciative of all who have donated. This is a nationwide program. The Eastland program was started in 2009 by Wendy Porter. She deserves a vote of thanks for her drive to establish this local program that has helped so many children over the years. Finances are always of concern to those of us who administer this program.
