Feed a Hungry Child Over Break
For many children school breaks are wonderful, happy and much appreciated times. Unfortunately for almost ¼ of our nation’s childhood population, this is not always the case. They and their families find themselves with food or enough to eat. In response to this, Corbin’s Legacy, fills 1100 backpacks with 1 or 2 weeks of food (depending on the length of the break) and distributes them to Title I elementary school children on the last day of school. Typically, we do this 4, sometimes 5 times a year – Fall (I week), Spring (1 week), Winter (2 weeks), and Summer (2 weeks). Our 5th drop varies, one year it was during RedForED and another during the summer (in neighborhood and community parks).
