THE REGIONAL FOOD BANK BACKPACK/SCHOOL PANTRY PROGRAMS
Locally, the Regional Food Bank provides student backpacks filled with food on weekends and access to food anytime during the school week in school “pantries”. Within the RC 10 region, 60 schools participate in the BackPack Program and 50 have a school pantry in the 2025-26 school year. More information on these programs can be found at: childrensprograms@regionalfoodbank.net.
RC 10 collects funds for these programs throughout the year.
