Charities that solicit donations so they can feed children: how do they feed the children without feeding the rest of the family?


Answer
There is a school program called Backpack Buddies. The school teachers put food in a backpack for children to eat on the weekends. The population our local food pantry serves is 40% children under the age of 14. Another 15% are under the age of 18. So, 58% of our food serves children...hope this helps.

Does anyone know of an organization/charity that accepts used school supplies/kids art supplies?

I'm clean sweeping the house and have tons of old/used school supplies, backpacks, scissors, pencil holders etc and would love to get them directly to someone in need rather than throwing them out or giving them to goodwill. But all I can find are org. looking for brand new donations. My stuff is in perfectly good shape.


Answer
As far as back packs go, you could call a local shelter where homeless kids may be living. They may also be able to use the supplies as well. You could also call the boys n girls club, big brother big sister, a ronald mcdonald house, or any local school. Head start which is a preschool for kids from low income families may also take donations
