Fun Photo Friday: Fighting Hunger with a BackPack

Every Friday we like to share a photo of something fun, informative, or otherwise interesting about what is happening in our Clubs! 

This week the Broadway Club has launched Feeding America's "BackPack for Kids" program. With the majority of our kids living at or below the poverty line, hunger is a daily struggle. We are able to meet this need on weekdays by providing a hot meal at each of our Clubs. But what about the weekends?

Now, 100 of our neediest kids at the Broadway Club will get to take home a backpack with nutritious food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner on both Saturday and Sunday. Thanks to a partnership with the Cleveland Foodbank, we can be sure that more of our kids are getting the food they need on the weekends so they can start the next week off right.
