About this organization
Mission
Our mission is to improve the lives and restore a basic level of dignity for less fortunate children in Polk County and beyond. Multiple programs will provide food, assistance, supplies, care and other needed provisions and services.
About
Working with local community volunteers, we are able to pack food for children to take into their homes and serve as sustenance when they are not at school. The benefits are long-lasting. Hunger has a direct link to a child's ability to learn as well as health. Studies show that nourished children experience less anxiety, reduced absenteeism, improved attention span, higher academic performance, and increased self esteem. Whether a child is living out of a car, with a relative, or in a hotel - Kidspack serves to help make sure that no child goes hungry.
