You have worked all of your adult life, not to mention all the babysitting your entire teen years and now it is time for you to take a well-deserved retirement. For about the last ten years you have watched as public schools in your city have begun to distribute backpacks for kids to take home with food for the weekend. During the weekend, the meals they get in school are not available to them and you are concerned that without the help of the food in the backpack, many would get not enough wholesome food during that time.
You have done some research and found a public school in your area that is not providing weekend backpacks and you are eager to fill their need. You have already spoken to the principal and she has gotten permission for school headquarters. So now, you can begin your charitable endeavor.
You have gathered a loyal cadre of volunteers who will commit themselves to be the core group of volunteers for your project. You have known many of them for ages and you know they can be counted on.
You have been investigating places where you can get the food that will go into the backpacks. You could go to a local food bank and pay them for the food but you have found that a better choice for you would be one of the wholesale food distributors in your area. This way you can get exactly what you need for the backpacks and still get everything you want for the kids.
Reach out to one of the wholesale food distributors in your area, S. Bertram Foods at https://www.sbertram.com/.
