Joy Lutheran has teamed up with the Homestead Elementary School's Student Leadership Council to help them provide consistent, shelf-table, and easy-to-make options each week for almost 100 students who have food insecurities on the weekends. This number could even grow as this program becomes known. At an estimated cost of $5.00 per bag and roughly 35 weeks of service, they are looking at a total estimate cost of $17,500.
Each bag will include: 2 oatmeal packs, 2 packages of ramen, 2 boxes of Macaroni and cheese, 2 granola/protein bars, 2 cups applesauce/fruit cups, and 1 can tuna/chicken.
**PLEASE NOTE.... We are only able to accept the items specified on this list. This allows for appropriate distribution**
