Packer Backer Campaign to Support Backpack Nutrition Program
Waushara County – The Packer Backer campaign is underway in Waushara County. The campaign encourages community members to support packing of backpacks with food for area students by making a donation to the Backpack Nutrition Program.
Prior to the pandemic, 61% of Waushara County’s elementary students in public schools were economically disadvantaged. The Backpack Nutrition Program offers a safety net for economically disadvantaged elementary students in Waushara County. The program provides nutritious snacks and food for students to eat during weekends and school breaks when they don’t have access to the school breakfast and lunch programs. Students qualify for the program if they are eligible for the Federal free/reduced lunch program and register for the program if offered in their school. Non-perishable food items and coupons for fresh food travel home in student’s backpacks each week.
The program began in 2012, serving twenty six students in one elementary school. Last year the program provided meals to 229 students and served four elementary schools.
Waushara’s Vision Backpack Nutrition Program is a function of the Waushara Prevention Council, Inc. The Packer Backer campaign is not affiliated with the Green Bay Packer organization. All gifts are tax deductible and used to provide food to students in need. To learn more about the program or make a donation contact Jan Novak at 920-787-6600 jan.novak@co.waushara.wi.us .
