The goal of our Feed the Backpacks Initiative is to provide Title 1 elementary students in Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia a nutritious meal to take home every weekend of the school year to keep them healthy, focused and ready to learn.
What is a Meal Packing Event?
A Meal Packing Event brings together volunteers to package Hunger Fight meals. A table of ten participants, in assembly line style, will: 1) measure the ingredients; 2) fill the bag; and, 3) seal the bag. It’s a fun, motivational and fulfilling way to serve those in need, with every meal packed going to Title 1 students in your community. Find out how your business, church or group can host a healthy Meal Packing Event to benefit food insecure children and families.
Nutritious Meals Designed To Boost Children’s Health, Physical & Cognitive Development
Tasty meals that children want to eat, our Cheezy Mac and Beans N Rice are fortified with twenty essential vitamins and nutrients to help kids meet their recommended daily nutritional requirements. Our Brown Sugar Oatmeal breakfast fills a child’s tummy and provides the energy boost students need to focus, concentrate, and be ready to learn in school.

In the fall of 2018, Hunger Fight is launching a new pilot program to address the literacy challenge our children face. This program, being developed in collaboration with a nationally known literacy program, will focus on emergent literacy skills, specifically those to develop early learning and reading skills in children ages 0-5.
