helping children who experience chronic hunger. In addition to the school
breakfast and lunch programs, some schools have started sending home

As one who spent the last 5 years working for a food distribution center
supplying food to 250 food pantries and other hunger relief agencies, I love
the backpack idea. This is an especially appealing program in rural areas
where food pantries may be few or non-existent or with little resources
