Backpack Meals Program

The Good Samaritan Food Pantry sponsors a program called Backpack Meals.

Backpack meals provide meals to students in grade K-12 that are food insecure on the weekends.

Without anyone knowing, school personnel quietly puts the meals into the Backpacks of each child K-5.  At the 6-12 level, students stop by a designated area to put their meals into their Backpacks.  School personnel ensure that no student feels humiliated or embarrassed about receiving this blessing.

Contact your school if you would like your child to receive these weekend meals. No proof of income is required.

We have a community of volunteers who pack Backpack meals for children in grades K-12 at ADM.

Thank you to the following people for ensuring that our students receive this blessing each week:
