Boys & Girls Club of Palm Beach County at Jupiter Elementary

Did you know that 38,000 children in Palm Beach County, Florida, struggle with food insecurity on the weekends? These kids eat meals at school during the week but need access to affordable, healthy food on Saturday and Sunday.

That's where Blessings in a Backpack can help!

We provide weekend food for 160 children at Jupiter Elementary who might otherwise go hungry. Students at The Benjamin School pack food weekly and deliver it to Jupiter Elementary, where the Boys & Girls Club of Palm Beach County afterschool program distributes the bags.

Please join us in preventing weekend hunger by making a gift. As little as $175 will help provide well-balanced, nutritional food for one child every weekend of the school year.

From the bottom of our backpacks, thank you for helping us feed kids in Palm Beach County on the weekends!  For more information about the program coordinated by students at The Benjamin School please contact Kerry at Blessingsinabackpackbenjamin@gmail.com
