Weekend Warrior Food Program

The Weekend Warrior Meal Program is designed to help families needing meal support for their children over the weekend when childcare is unavailable. The meal package includes two breakfast items and two dinner items. The package also includes snacks such as fresh fruit, granola, and snack crackers for in-between mealtimes.

The program started in 2019, during the COVID pandemic when it was brought to our foundation’s attention that several families are struggling to provide healthy meals for their families due to financial challenges. So far, we have provided over 1,000 meals for children to decrease their chances of going hungry. In Jefferson County alone, studies show that there are over 77,000+ people dealing with food insecurity.

Our program hopes to decrease the chances of children going hungry and increase the accessibility to nutritious meals and snacks.
