Food Backpack Program
Simonds has partnered with a local non profit resource “Food For Thought”. This program provides a backpack of food (includes non perishables and fresh fruits and vegetables,) for students in need over the weekend and school breaks. The filled backpacks are dropped off at Simonds on Fridays (or Thursdays if no school on Friday) and handed out confidentially by the school nurse to students participating.
This is a confidential program and there are no requirements to meet. You can opt in or out at anytime as your circumstances may change. Please contact me if you are interested in this program or would like more information jmeade@kearsarge.org
