WHAT IS OPERATION BACKPACK?
Operation Backpack, a program lead by Operation Food Search, operates to meet the need for food by providing weekend food assistance to school aged children who rely on free and reduced lunch program during the week. Students are given a backpack at the beginning of the school year, which is refilled every Friday with a mix of whole grain breakfast items, canned fruits and vegetables, entrée items with protein, and nutrient dense snacks. By providing weekend food assistance to children who are experiencing food insecurity we can heal hunger and strengthen their future.
Imagine with a Mission partnered with Operation Food Search by donating $10,000 to fund Operation Backpack for the Jennings School District for the 22- 23 school year where Jennings High School agreed to be a program partner. We have collaborated with Leonard Holloway, assistant Principal of Jennings High School to manage the Backpack process to ensure that distribution of the bags of food to the students is well organized and successful. Imagine with a Mission will also provide a stipend to the Operation Backpack School Coordinator responsible for weekly distribution.
