The Backpack Buddy program provides two meals to hungry students each weekend. Organizers are grateful to several new funding providers who are helping the program create cooperative relationships that mean more students will be fed. Please see the video below from KATU to learn more about the program.
Drive Drop and Donate takes place this weekend, Sept. 30 - Oct. 2, at four participating Safeway Stores in Milwaukie, Oak Grove and Clackamas. You can also donate food at any North Clackamas elementary school and Wichita School. Here are the Safeway locations:
