We are changing lives,
one meal at a time!
Power Packs provided more than 519,437 meals in the previous school year and summer programs. We’re on track to beat that number this year.
Over 5,975 volunteer hours went into helping us meet our mission last year. From working in the office on admin projects, to packing and delivering boxes, we can’t do it without our amazing volunteers!
During the previous school year + summer program, we have served over 58,161 children right in our backyard!
“I recently lost my job, and I struggled a lot with finances. To make things worse, I found out we were not eligible for food stamps. It was almost impossible to make ends meet. Then, my daughter came home from school one day with a Power Packs application, and it was exciting to see that we might be able to receive some help! I applied, and we started the program. To be honest, Power Packs Project has saved us! There were days during this difficult time in our lives where I just didn’t know what to do or where to turn. Without it, we could have gone days with little food.”

“We love the recipe, each week it gives me and my son a great opportunity to work in the kitchen putting our meals together.”

Did you know: a simple $5 donation to Power Packs gives us $20-$25 spending power with our local community partners?
We couldn’t meet our mission without the hundreds of volunteers that pack boxes, deliver to schools, & make sure we feed our community!
“Power Packs means to me and my girls a life link. It provides us with food. But it’s more than food, it’s knowing that someone cares for you and understands what you and your family are going through. We cook the meal together and we sit down and talk.”
