Backpack Nutrition Program in East Hartford, CT, is dedicated to combating weekend hunger for children. By providing backpacks filled with nourishing, easily-prepared food, we ensure that students who receive free and reduced lunch during the school week have access to meals over the weekend. Our mission is to support local families and enhance the well-being of children in our community, helping them return to school ready to learn and thrive. We welcome families in need to connect with us and access this vital food assistance.
