The Food 4 Kids Backpack Program provides weekend backpacks filled with food to chronically hungry elementary school children who receive free school breakfasts and lunches during the week, but face hunger over the weekend when free school meals are unavailable. During the 2011-2012 school year, the program served children at 29 elementary schools throughout San Diego County. And this coming school year, the Food Bank will expand the program to 30 elementary schools.
Participating restaurants and food trucks have selected a best-selling signature dish, and throughout the month of August they will contribute $1 to the Food 4 Kids Backpack Program for every dish sold.
