Bags are packed on Thursdays at St Clements & distributed each Friday to all 6 elementary schools, middle and high schools in the SSCSD. The SNACPack Program (Saratoga Nutrition Assistance for Children) is designed to meet the needs of hungry children on weekends, when other resources are not available to them. The program provides backpacks filled with food that is child-friendly, shelf-stable, a
nd easily-consumed. Bags are packed each week by volunteers and discreetly distributed to participating children every Friday afternoon. All 6 elementary schools, the middle and high schools are all working together to help our children who are considered chronically hungry. Each bag includes…
• 2 breakfast items ( box of cereal, oatmeal packets, graham crackers, granola bars)
• 3 entrées (mac & cheese, PB & J, canned pastas, tuna, soup, etc.)
• A loaf of bread
• Shelf-stable milk or milk card
• 2-3 juice boxes (100% juice when possible)
• Fresh fruits
• 2 Canned vegetables
• Snacks including protein bars, granola bars, pudding, cookies
How you can help...
The SNACPack program is funded entirely by local donations to St. Clements Outreach
• 100% of donations go towards running the SNACPack program.
• The average cost of one backpack full of food is $8-9/bag. We include more in each backpack than many other similar programs because of the generosity of St. Clement's Outreach and private donations.
• When sending in a donation to St. Clements, be sure to indicate that you’d like the funds to be directed to the “SNACPack Program”. Clements Outreach Program
