Food 2 Kids Big Spring distributed over 15,000 weekend food sacks across seven local school campuses during the 2023 - 2024 school year. We served five Big Spring ISD campuses including Moss Elementary, Marcy Elementary, Goliad Elementary, Kentwood Early Childhood Center, and Big Spring Intermediate. We also served Forsan Elementary and Coahoma Elementary. Across these seven campuses, we served 466 students weekly from September to May during the school year.
By working closely with each school campus we ensure that students leave school with food for the weekend. 1 in 6 children live in households without consistent access to adequate food. The food sacks provided by Food 2 Kids Big Spring allow children the nutrients they need to grow and be healthy.
Our first set of summer food sacks are being delivered on June 5th to four low-income apartment complexes and two local nonprofits that work with children during the summer. This first summer delivery includes 560 food sacks to help children in need during the summer while they are away from school-provided lunches.
