Plenty of snacks, while also covering breakfast, lunch and dinner on both Saturday and Sunday
The Kinsmen Club of Brockville is making sure no student goes hungry on weekends.
The “Weekender Program for Students” or WP4S, provides weekend food support for children and teens who may not otherwise have enough to eat.
Coordinator Laura Roobol explains what the program does.
The food baggies contain items such as granola bars, fruit cups, Kraft Dinner, Bear Paws and more.
Roobol says the service offers students plenty of snacks, while also covering breakfast, lunch and dinner on both Saturday and Sunday.
The program is now seeking donations to help purchase food gift cards and supplies.
Roobol explains how residents can contribute.
Donations will help support hundreds of local students who live with food insecurity.
