Backpack Club gets great response

We’ve pushed the Bay Area Food Bank’s Backpack to fight childhood hunger in our public school system. For $110, supporters can feed a child and his siblings on weekends throughout the year. For $11,000, we can get everyone on the waiting lists at Oakcrest, Weis and Spencer Bibbs enrolled in the program.

People are looking for ways to make a real difference in Pensacola. The Backpack Club is lifesaver. Make an online donation through the food bank’s website at bayareafoodbank.org. Please be sure to specify the Florida Backpacks for Kids Program on your donation.
