About Child Hunger Programs
In collaboration with more than 110 school partners in Southeast Nebraska, 1 million meals were connected through our Child Hunger Programs last fiscal year. This is done through four programs that aim to alleviate child hunger:
The BackPack Program connects about 2,200 children with easy to prepare meals and snacks each Friday during the academic year.
School Food Markets and Pantries are held in schools across Southeast Nebraska, where about 4,600 students and their families select food items from a monthly pop-up distribution in their school.
The Lincoln Public Schools Emergency Pantry provides shelf-stable foods from a centrally located space three days a week during the school year.
The Student-Parent Voucher Program provides vouchers to help student parents offset the cost of groceries.
