This mission helps meet the nutritional needs of children over the weekend when they are away from the free lunch program at school. Backpacks full of nutritious, kid-friendly, easy to prepare foods are given to at-risk children on Friday before school dismissal.
2 Rivers Church is helping to sponsor 50 children at Duello Elementary. Help fill a child’s backpack by picking up a couple items from the list below and dropping it off at the Operation Food Search table.
