It's back to school time, and that means it's time to begin preparing for the knapsacks program for 2026-2027. Our kickoff meeting is scheduled for August 26th at 10AM in the Hanceville Civic Center (the old armory). If your group volunteered last year, you will be receiving a text with that information. We are very grateful for our voluteers, and we are always looking for new groups to volunteer. If you would like to volunteer, please contact this page or contact Sabrina Ryan. Or simply attend the meeting on August 26th. If you are not familiar with our program, we send food home for the weekend for students who might not otherwise have any. And we are serving around 130 children a week.
Also, if you would like to donate money you can do that through our cashapp at

As the new school year begins, we at Hanceville Knapsacks for Kids would like to thank all of you for your continued support of the program. Last year we packed 4500 bags over a 30 week period. The items in each bag averaged $15 per bag. This year we are adding a new way to donate. We now accept donations through cashapp at $knapsacks4
And you can still send donations to :
Hanceville Knapsacks for Kids
C/O Nancy Horton
PO Box 255
Hanceville, Al 35077. We accept any amount you would like to give. If you would like to sponsor a child, $60 will cover one child for a month. $225 covers one semester. And a donation of $450 will pay for one child's knapsacks for the entire school year. Thank you all so much for everything that you do! We look forward to seeing all of our beautiful volunteers very soon.

All of us at Hanceville Knapsacks for Kids want to wish everyone a safe and happy summer. We would also like to take this opportunity to thank ALL of the wonderful people of the community that show up (and show out) for this program every year! We packed knapsacks 30 weeks of the 2025-2026 school year. And each week we were joined by a lovely group of volunteers from the Hanceville community. Over that 30 week period we packed a total of 4500 bags! At an average of $15 a bag, that means that you guys helped us send home $67,500 worth of food to children for the weekends. We could not do this without all of you that donated time and money!! And we thank you so much for all that you do!!
Also, we welcome anyone that would like to donate time or money to please do so. Anyone who is interested please feel free to contact the page.
Everyone have a wonderful summer! We will see you all in August.
Thank you!
