Blessings in a Backpack’s COVID-19 Response Effort

Help Blessings in a Backpack continue to feed kids on the weekends during this public health emergency. Each Friday the Louisville Chapter will distribute prepacked bags of food at 19 Jefferson County Public Schools emergency feeding sites and three non-school sites, to ensure students have enough to eat on the weekend while schools are closed.

At Blessings in a Backpack, we mobilize communities, individuals, and resources to provide food on the weekend to kids who might otherwise go hungry. Because of this mission, we have witnessed the power of communities when they come together toward a common goal. It is because of this experience that we are confident our compassionate city will find the strength to weather this storm together.

Blessings in a Backpack bags of food will be distributed as usual to kids at select JCPS feeding sites. Learn more by clicking here.

Our Chapter and all of our programs are receiving an outpouring of support. We are so blessed to have such a caring and motivated group of volunteers and donors in Louisville. Because of people like them (and you!), we are providing for our kids during this public health emergency. Thank you!

As little as $4 will help provide one bag of food for a child during COVID-19.
