The goal of the North Warren Backpack Program is to provide students in need backpacks full of nutritious and easy to prepare food for the weekend on Friday afternoons. This helps ensure that children will have food over the weekend and return to school on Monday ready to learn.
The first bags were distributed on 10/21/2016 and will continue to the end of the school year due to the efforts and generosity of the North Warren staff, various community organizations and private citizens.
Eventually, the hope is to also provide food for vacations. For those wishing to help with this fundraising effort, monetary donations can be sent to:
The North Warren Central School Backpack Program
6110 State Route 8 Chestertown, NY 12817
*Any organizations or individuals seeking more information can contact Jessica Bartlett at 494-3015 ext 405.
