The Backpacks of Hope Program, part of Esther's Heart for Transformation Ministry in Matthews, NC, is dedicated to addressing food assistance needs for local youth by providing nutritious meals for the entire weekend. With a focus on bolstering the confidence and character of our young participants, our program distributes bags of food through the Mecklenburg and Cabarrus County School Systems, ensuring that children in need have access to emergency food resources. We believe in fostering a supportive environment where every young person can recognize their potential and thrive.
