The FOK weekend food bags have a new addition — thanks to Kwik Star! Dallas Clark, manager of the Spencer location, delivered nearly 900 applesauce pouches to the Emmetsburg store, and they’ve now been added to our shelves for FOK weekend bags!

We’re so grateful for this generous support and for community partners who help keep our kids fueled and ready to learn. Thank you!!
