BACKPACKS FOR SCHOOL!

These students received new backpacks filled with school supplies and their parents received their food allotments today.  Project Self-Esteem, another Carroll County nonprofit, raises over $9,000 each year to provide school children living in our client families with brand new school supplies.  Whether it is your time for food distribution or not, you may come in to pick up backpacks for your school aged children.

To be eligible, 1) the household must have been served this year by Loaves & Fishes;  2) the child must be in grades k-12 and appear on the household card; 3) a member of the household may pick up bags only for their household.    

Good and Cheap!

The “Country Chicks” home extension club purchased copies of these cook books for our clients.  The books feature eating healthy as well as eating inexpensively.  The club also gave a food demonstration.  Thank you, Ladies!
